Admin Account Users

To access library accounts, individual administrators must be authorised. Authorization must be done by a current library administrator or by a desLibris account manager.

 

Current library administrators wishing to add a new administrative user should go to the Profile "Admin Users" tab (1), click + and add the new name and email.

Be sure to "Save" any changes before leaving the tab.

 

The "Authorized" option provides only read-only access to the Library account.

The "Superuser" option provides access to all administrative functions. 

 

Use "edit" (2) to change current user account information and permissions. 

 

Superusers may edit and add user names and emails, but removal of inactive or invalid users is not available for Superusers.

 

It is not necessary to actually delete or remove inactive or invalid users, since admin privileges may be removed from any user account by unchecking "Authorized."

 

To delete inactive users, uncheck "Authorized," Save, and send an email removal request to support@canadianelectroniclibrary.ca.
