CGD Help: Colleague Search
Contents
Colleague Search allows you to search for colleague information in CGD; you can also update an existing colleague or add a new one from the search results table.
Enter the LAST name of the colleague of interest.
- If there is only one colleague with the last name that you
entered, you will go directly to the Colleague Display for that colleague.
- If there is more than one
colleague with the last name that you entered, the program will
present you with a results table of all the colleagues in CGD
with the last name that you entered. Check the list for the name of
interest and click on it to go to the display page for that colleague.
- If you are unsure of the
spelling of the name (eg. Smith vs. Smyth), you may want to use
the wildcard
character (*) in your search. To find both Smith and Smyth, enter Sm*th. This will retrieve all
colleagues with last names that start with Sm and end in th. If
you are not sure whether one of the entries in the results table is
the one you want, click on a likely name to check it; use the Back
button on your browser to return to the Results table if it is not
the one of interest.
From the results table page, you can also edit your existing entry or add a new one:
- Editing an existing entry:
If you searched for your own last name and would like
would like to edit your existing entry, click on the "Update a Colleague on this page" link at the bottom of the page. Click on your name to retrieve the colleague submission form, make your changes, then submit it to update your colleague
information in CGD. After CGD curators process your form, it will be available on-line.
- Adding a new entry
If your name is not on the list and you would like to add yourself as a colleague, click on Add New Colleague at the bottom of the page. You will be presented with a blank form to provide your contact information. After CGD curators process your form, this information will be available on-line.
