Newsletter/Announcement Manager
Setting Up New Publications 
Administrators with the proper permissions have the ability to create a new newsletter or organization. In order to create a functioning newsletter (a whole publication, not a specific issue), administrators must specify or create an organization for the newsletter, create the newsletter itself, and add administrators to send the newsletter.

Each newsletter must be attached to an organization, designating which department, unit, or organization the publisher belongs to.

Creating a Newsletter
Publishers should use their judgment as to the number of newsletters created for any one organization. This decision will be influenced by content, frequency of publication and the audience/category type. The number of newsletters for an organization is not limited; however, only three newsletters (whole publications, not any specific issue) can be included into the weekly digest.
