6.17 Quick Contact

The "Quick Contact" block provides a consistent location for our site visitors to find basic information on how to contact someone within a unit and also displays relevant social media links.

Both the contact information and social media links can be separated by campus.

The last item in the Quick Contact block -- a unit of XYZ --provides the visitor with a sense of the current site's relation to the bigger picture at UNG, and a link to this same location.

Don't use the actual words "email",  "phone" or "phone number" in this block - the purpose of the information is obvious. "Fax" would need to be used if a fax number is listed.

If you choose to add a custom image to the social media section of the Quick Contact block, please be advised that the custom image size will be resized to 24px by 24px in order for the image to properly show.

The Quick Contact block is required for every site. In addition, no personal emails should be entered as a quick contact. Generic emails forwarding to a person in your unit can be set up by emailing helpdesk@ung.edu.
