My Account

The My Account page enables you to personalize your view of the portal. The My Account link is only visible when you are logged in to the portal. You can perform the following functions from the My Account page:

• Edit User Profile: allows you to edit your user information. Profiles can contain information such as name, screen name, contact information, and expertise; the type of information that you are allowed to edit is determined by your portal administrator.

• Display Options: allows you to change your portal display to accommodate assistive technology or low bandwidth connections, change how your portal displays documents and how often your browser updates your view of the portal. Also, if you have permissions, you can enable debug mode to help your portal administrator diagnose problems.

• Edit Locale Settings: allows you to personalize your time zone and the language your portal displays.

• Search Preferences: allows you to specify your search preferences.

• View User Profile: allows you to view your public user profile.

• Change Password: allows you to change your portal account password. This option is not available for user accounts that have been imported from another authentication source. 

• Password Manager: allows you to record your login credentials for external applications you can access through the portal.

You might see additional options that are created by your portal administrator.
