The UBC Digital Signage Program

Service Update:
The university is in the process of replacing the CoolSign digital signage solution. Details on a new software suite will be shared with clients of the signage service when available.  New CoolSign deployments are not available at this time. Please contact us directly with questions or to discuss options related to any new digital signage requests.

Digital Signage provides a powerful and highly visible opportunity to communicate messages across the university and engage with our audiences. In response to an increased demand, Content and Design Guidelines have been developed to assist content managers and creators to develop effective digital communications.

The UBC Digital Signage Program provides a central resource for units across the university who administer digital signs. Under the direction of UBC IT and Communications & Marketing, the digital signage network provides the visual and technical architecture required to share diverse messaging consistently and efficiently across the university from a central source. This integrated system provides the functional capacity to deliver campus updates and emergency information.
