L2 Tip

As a way to stay in touch and to network with others within L2, make sure your user profile is up-to-date.

Access your profile from the “Signed in as:  Your Name” link at the top of the page in the gray box.

Click on your name (white lettering) and then the Edit profile link at the right in order to see your profile options:

Email address, Bio, basic information - basic demographic and personal information you wish to share with others

For Non-member accounts, please enter your Title and Company.  Adding a personal biography is encouraged.

Change Password – enter and confirm a new password

Library Association – modify the library you work at (or add a second association if you happen to work or serve on the board at another library)

Social Networking/IM connections – link to your profile on popular networking sites, such as Facebook, Twitter, WebJunction Illinois, Flickr, LibraryThing and more.  Enter your username for the services you want others to visit.

Picture – upload a photo or graphic image.  Ideally, share a photo so others can place people and faces they have met in training or meetings.  To add a photo to your profile, choose the “Change Photo” link from the Edit Profile page.  Browse to your local photo file to upload the image.  Images should be square in size, approximately 150 x 150 pixels.  Once the photo is loaded, the new image appears in your profile and will be used in any event roster.
