A coordinated system of University stationery is important to the image of the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Letterhead includes the Amherst campus seal, which is the official standard. Business cards are designed to coordinate with the university letterhead. UMass Amherst business should be conducted on official letterhead.

Letterhead, envelopes, business cards, and related stationery items may be printed by Print Services, located on the lower level of the Whitmore Administration Builiding. Print Services (link) will insure that graphic set-up cmplies with both United States Postal Service addressing regulations and the campus's Graphic Identity standards. It is recommended that stationery be ordered through them.
