How do I add an item to the Resource Library?
The Resource Library is the place to permanently store useful documents, while the news page is the place to display temporary news items that will expire to the archives after a set time.
How do I add an item to the Resource Library?
To add a document to the Resource Library:- Go to the Resource Library section of the intranet you are on (If it is a members only area you will be asked to enter your username and password).
- When you are in the Resource Library section choose the 'Upload' or 'Add' or 'Post' link.
- A new window will appear with an online posting form to fill in.
- Type the title, author and brief description of the document in the appropriate fields.
- It is important to select the appropriate folder to store the document in from the 'Select a Folder' drop-down menu. This is essentially choosing which category in which to place the document.
- Use the 'Browse' button to find the document stored on your hard drive, server or on a floppy disk in the A drive.
- Choose a document type from the 'Type of document' drop down menu list.
- Although it is not recommended, you can also link to a document on another website instead of uploading one from your hard drive. Do this by typing the URL web address of the document into the 'Website Address' field at the bottom of the window. This is not recommended because if the document on the web is moved or the target website is restricted the link to the document may no longer work.
- To finalise the process choose 'Submit' or 'Add'.
- The item will then be checked and approved by the site's administrator.
