Make your request for publicity UAB’ s Internal Communications and Media Relations groups work with UAB faculty and staff to develop and distribute university news and information in a variety of ways. It’s our job, and we’re happy to help.
The more notice we have about your needs, the better able we are to help promote your events and get your news to audiences that need to hear it. In the news business, timing is everything. If you wait until the last minute to contact us, we may not have time to meet media deadlines while an item is newsworthy. When in doubt, take the sooner-is-better approach.
