Biographical / historical:

The University Marketing Office is one of five units that operates under the University Relations department. A client-based service that operates for both the administration and colleges on campus, the University Marketing Office is responsible for the marketing of the university both to potential students and to the general public. The University Marketing office strives to consolidate all of the university marketing under its umbrella so that the integrity of the university logo can be properly promoted and preserved.

Acquisition information:
The materials were first transferred to the University Archives by the University Marketing Office in 2005, and accessions have been added regularly since.
Processing information:

Any deteriorating paper clips were removed and replaced with plastic clips. Newspaper and magazine clippings were consolidated into one folder. All materials were rehoused in acid-free folders and boxes. Duplicates and post-it notes were removed. Some materials of interest but not archival were moved to the vertical file. Photographs were sleeved.

Arrangement:

The records are arranged in four series. Originally, the placement of materials was determined by whether the advertising was on or off campus. Upon the acquisition of new materials additional series were added for newsclippings and the UCF Uncut Contest. Other marketing materials acquired in subsequent acquisitions are added to Series I.
