Out Building Identifiers
Signs for out buildings are made at the USM Department of Facilities Management and are attached flush to the building. These signs include the University logo, street address, and in some cases may include up to two lines of identifying text. This identifying text can be a maximum of 32 characters per line and can identify up to two building occupying departments or offices, one occupant per line. Occupying departments or offices with longer names may use both lines, but only if they are the sole occupant of a building. If three or more building departments or offices have names such that they could fit within the two-line requirement, consideration will be given to this.
Multi-use buildings with more than two occupying departments or offices, or with longer names that take up more than two lines as mentioned above will be identified only by street address. The sign may not increase in height to identify more occupants or have additional signs added below it. These signs will appear in the USM colors.
For multi-use buildings, offices and departments will be identified in a directory at the entrance. (See Directory Signs)
