! 12: \textbf{Add/Modify a Co-author}.
! 13: \item You can use the \textbf{Search for a user and modify/add user information or roles} section to search for a user by username, or last name, in a specific LON-CAPA domain, or in an institutional directory, if the domain has access to an institutional directory search service.
! 14:
! 15: \textbf{Note}: If you know the exact username, you can either use a ``username is ...'' search in the search section, or type the username in the textbox in the \textbf{Search criteria} section.
! 16:
! 17: \item Click the \textbf{Search} or \textbf{Create/Modify user} button, as appropriate.
! 18:
! 19: \textbf{Note}: If the user exists, the \textbf{Modify existing user} screen will display the user's information, existing roles and roles you can assign. Which fields appear as textboxes in the \textbf{Personal Data} table, and may be modified, will depend on policies set for the domain.
! 20:
! 21: \textbf{Note}: If this will be a new user, the \textbf{Create New User} screen will display fields to type in the user's information, and roles you can assign. The main differences between a Co-author and an Assistant Co-author role are that (a) a user with an assistant co-author may only browse published resources belonging to authors for whom the user has an assistant co-author role, (whereas a co-author can browse system-wide) and (b) a user with a co-author role is considered and ``advanced user'', while a user with an assistant co-author role is not (a domain coordinator can assign common settings to all advanced users).
! 22:
! 23: \item Click the box next to the roles you wish to revoke, or add to the user. If
! 24: you are adding roles you can provide starting and ending dates for the role.
! 25: \item To save your changes click \fbox{{Save}
