Style Guide

Reference for library staff for creating and maintaining guides. Style sheets, font information, logos, etc.

Greenwood Library has four kinds of digital marketing -- the web banner on the homepage of the website, the screens in the atrium, the digital poster next to the Desk and social media posts.  

Atrium Screen Information

TV screens in the Atrium

The TV screens are located in the atrium, above the displays. The remote for turning on and off these screens are located in the far left drawer at the Desk (drawers are labeled).

The dimensions for the screens ideally is 1920 px by 1080 px. There is a template within Greenwood Library's professional Canva account, or it is the same dimensions as presentation slide.

The files for the slides are located in shared drive LibStaff>Digital Sign Files>(current school year, e.g. Fall 2020- Spring 2021)>Type (TV Slides or Web Banners)

To upload new slides, you must have the IP address in order to upload the new files to the TV's microSD card.   Follow the Atrium Screen Upload/Delete Instructions

For reference, 159.230.224.12 is the TV facing the front doors and 159.230.224.44 is the TV facing the stairs.
If the TVs will not let you upload any new slides or delete slides, there is a problem with the microSD card. We have an extra microSD card in the Digital Signage Supplies folder in the Instruction cabinet.
Before you replace the microSD card, make sure the extra microSD card has been formatted on a computer. The adapter for the microSD is in the folder. Turn off the TV. To find the microSD slot on the TV, grab a stool or ladder and look directly up at the back of each TV (see photo for reference). Simply pop out of the old one and replace with the blank one and turn TV back on. Go back to your computer and try to upload your slides again.
If the TV is still being troublesome, contact IT for them to come and take a look at it.
