Shared Assets in the DAM

How does shared assets work?

Shared Assets is a private collection of Ohio State assets.

• Assets are contributed by marketing and communications staff across the university. 
• To gain access to the Shared Assets collection, units agree to contribute shared assets from their collections. 
• Unit-created assets are contributed to the collection for use with all rights released. 
• Only Ohio State images are in Shared Assets, not other copyrighted material.
• To get access to the Ohio State Shared Assets collection, units agree to contribute shared assets from their collections.
• Assets may include photos, videos, B-roll, drone footage, maps, artwork, even portable document formats (PDFs) or  3-dimensional renderings.

How do I gain access to the Shared Assets collection?

To access the Shared Assets collection, units agree to contribute assets.

Units will assign contributors. Contributors are required to complete training to understand how to upload, tag and manage assets. Contributors are usually photographers, videographers or designers who understand how to upload and tag assets for the good of the searching community.

Units will assign basic users, or users who will need to search shared assets for marketing and communication purposes.
