E-update
E-Update is a daily news bulletin service for staff. E-Updates are submitted by staff and an email with a summary of the day's E-Updates is sent to a staff subscriber list each weekday morning.
E-Updates are published in the daily news bulletin on the start date specified by the submitter, and displayed on the University Intranet until the end date.
Subscribe
Staff can subscribe to E-Update to receive the daily news bulletin. Enter your staff email address in the 'E-Update Daily News email message' box in the bottom left corner and hit 'submit'.
Guidelines
- Messages can be displayed on the University Intranet for up to one month.
- If you require an E-Update to be published in the daily news bulletin on more than one day, you must submit a separate announcement for each day. Please note that the same announcement cannot be published in the daily news bulletin for two or more consecutive days – there needs to be at least one day's break in between.
- E-Updates must be submitted before 12.00pm to ensure it will be published the next working day.
- E-Updates can be submitted in advance.
- E-Updates can include attachments.
- Use http:// at the front of a URL if you want it to appear as a clickable link.
- Messages relating to advertising the sale of goods should use only the "Social and non-work specific announcements" category. These messages will not appear in the daily email but will be on the E-Update webpage.
- E-Update cannot be used to advertise an independent business venture or the sale of goods not owned by a University staff member.
- Political or religious messages endorsing a particular philosophy cannot be published on E-Update.
- The E-Update moderator reserves the right to edit long messages or to decline to publish unsuitable messages.
- All E-Updates must comply with the Western Sydney University Acceptable Use of IT Resources Policy (opens in a new window) and the Western Sydney University Code of Conduct (opens in a new window).
