In emergency situations, a message may be posted to 黄色视频 homesite and across 200+ other websites on the queensu.ca domain.

Messages originate from the Communications Group Leader in the 黄色视频 Emergency Management Group. This leader is responsible for liaising with the members of the Emergency Communications Team. The team then prepares messaging for communications to relevant stakeholder groups.

There are three categories for messaging through the system: emergency, warning, and notice/all clear.

How to include emergency messages

WebPublish sites

All sites built through the 黄色视频 WebPublish Basic Service and Custom Service automatically display notices posted through 黄色视频 website emergency messaging system.

Developers of websites created through the WebPublish Advanced service should add the emergency messaging feed. For help, contact the Digital Strategy Team in University Relations.

Other platforms

Developers of websites built on other platforms (i.e., not WebPublish) can include emergency messaging by adding the Utility Bar script in their sites.

Developer Support

For questions or assistance in adding emergency messaging to your site, contact Matthew Fair directly, or email the Digital Strategy Team.
