Body
Installing a digital sign in a UNH location to provide the latest information on events, schedules, awards, staff appreciation, social media campaigns or public service announcements can be a great addition to a public space. There are a few considerations, and price is one of them. The upfront costs can seem daunting but often once the sign is in place, it will be an information kiosk for years and years.
