Building a better Extra

To minimize printing costs and provide more relevant, timely information, changes have been made to the Extra printing and distribution process:

• With this (Feb. 20) issue, Extra will be printed in black and white at the UPMC Print Shop.
• Also with this issue, printed copies will be delivered only to the hospitals and other work areas where staff may not have ready access to computers. Corporate and other areas will receive Extra only through e-mail distribution. The issues will continue to be archived and available at www.extra.upmc.com.
• Beginning March 6, Extra and Inside Extra will be produced and distributed only on the first Friday of the month. On other Fridays, news and information will be sent via a brief Extra Express e-mail to all users.

If you have news or suggestions for Extra or Extra Express, send the information to Extra@upmc.edu.

These changes are part of the Public Relations Department’s ongoing efforts to provide you with the type of news you want, when you want it, in a format that works for you.
