The Office of Publications is responsible for producing publications that project a clear and consistent image of the university. An impression of Northeastern's quality is conveyed by its publications, whether they are distributed off campus or circulated on campus. The Publications' staff will provide creative services and coordinate each project from the initial planning stage through delivery of the finished product. Our services range from assistance in planning and preparing, to compiling, writing, editing, and designing official university publications, and maintaining a schedule for all the publications produced by this area. Contact the Publications office as soon as possible in your planning process.
Careful planning is the key to producing an effective publication.
The publications office can help you accomplish your objective or purpose within your budgetary limitations. Before or during our initial meeting, you will be given a Graphics Request. All publications that communicate information about the university, are printed with university funds, and communicate with prospective or currently enrolled students, parents, alumni, prospective donors, or other outside audiences, must be approved by the appropriate areas before any work can be done. Once we receive the approved Graphics Request, along with a disk and hard copy of the publication, the copy is edited for style and grammar and submitted to Graphics for typesetting, layout, and design. Even though our office will proofread the copy, you are responsible for proofing the copy and making the final corrections.
