Questions (and answers)

Q: There is incorrect information on my faculty page. How do I correct it?

You can do almost everything yourself, from within mostly VIVO. See Arts and Sciences Communication's how-to guide:

• http://communications.as.cornell.edu/vivo-guidelines

Q: I updated VIVO, Workday, and/ or WhoIAm. Why are my updates not showing up on my faculty page?

A&S Comm noted June 2016:

• We're not specifying "refresh times" as these can vary quite a bit, and some data fields are set up to import automatically, while others we import manually on a schedule. No piece of information should take more than 24 hours to show up in the new profiles after making an edit in VIVO or Workday. If any faculty members do have concerns that updates are getting delayed longer than that, (...) let us know then.

Data-point from Chemistry IT's testing (June 2016):

• Updating ones office room building name and number in WhoIAm shows up right away on the faculty page.

Q: Who runs the site and the faculty pages?

Hosting

A&S Communications is responsible for creating and hosting the department's website. It runs on Drupal.

Hosting: Faculty pages specifically

A&S Communications create and maintain the faculty pages and the associated "feeds" from VIVO, Workday, and WhoIAm.

• Arts and Sciences Communications <as_communication@cornell.edu> provide faculty with how-to documentation on-line:
  • http://communications.as.cornell.edu/vivo-guidelines
  • If more is needed, they A&S Comms has a useful MS Word (not PDF?) and JPG files they can send faculty, and can otherwise help.
• As a courtesy, here are items procured from A&S Comm from June 2016, of which A&S Comm may have more current versions and can provide any context and corrections:
  
  • Screenshot indicating where data in a faculty page comes from.
  • Instructions on how to update information coming from Cornell Library's VIVO.

Ownership

The Chemistry department Chair (via the "Website" faculty committee and its Chair) is the owner of the website.

• This includes navigation, content, and how content is arranged, presented, and updated.

Day-to-day operations

The Chair's Office staff manages or coordinates the day-to-day operations of the site. They may be reached at <chemweb@cornell.edu>.

• They work under the direction of the "Website" faculty committee.
• They help to clarify who the "owner" of various content of the site belongs to. If you note errors (presumably not on your faculty page), please let them know. Thank you.
