University Website
If you are a department chair, program director or secretary, you are likely responsible for your department/program website's content. The Office of Communication & Marketing offers two methods* for updating your website:
- Self-service using TerminalFour, the university's content management system
- Individual website update requests
TerminalFour is the main content management system utilized by New Paltz to maintain the university's main website, www.newpaltz.edu. Using this system, it is possible for faculty/staff with no formal technical training to keep their department website up to date, including the ability to edit text, add and remove images, add and remove pages, and reorganize the main navigational links.
The Office of Communication & Marketing also allows for faculty/staff to submit individual website update requests, which will be processed in the order they are received. Generally, updates are made within five business days of receipt.
Email Marketing
The Office of Communication & Marketing provides support for the use of mass email marketing services. We offer branded templates, training on the use of the University’s mass email marketing tool, and limited support in the creation and sending emailing to groups. Features and Benefits:

Digital Signage
Digital Signage Content Update Request
The Office of Communication & Marketing collaborates with Information Technology Services in the administration of the Campus Digital Signage.
