\label{Docs_Overview}Management of a LON-CAPA course is managed through the Course Documents screen, accessed by pressing the \textbf{DOCS} button on the remote. This screen allows you to arrange LON-CAPA resources from the LON-CAPA network, and create several resources for use in your course. \textbf{Main Course Documents} are the ones the student will use the navigation controls to move through, and make up the course itself. Main Course documents show up on the Navigation Maps screen. Main Course Documents was added to LON-CAPA in 2003, so courses pre-dating 2003, or deliberately created in the old style by the Domain Coordinator will not have Main Course Documents. \textbf{Supplemental Course Documents} are attached to the course, but do not appear in the main course sequence. Students access these documents by hitting the \textbf{DOCS} button on their remote. Supplemental Course Documents are particularly useful for auxiliary files that may not be directly viewable or usable in a browser, such as Powerpoint presentations or Word documents, which may not work on all student's computers. Manipulating the two types of Course Documents are essentially identical, except that the Main Course Documents has some options which are not available in the Supplemental Documents, as they do not make sense there. \textbf{Note}: These capabilities are provided to allow instructors to extend already existing courses, or personalize courses with their own syllabuses or information pages. Main Course Documents and Supplemental Course documents do not carry over from one course to another. If you would like to create documents that can be used in multiple courses, please talk to your LON-CAPA Domain Coordinator about becoming an Author, which will open the full power of the Author role to you. For more information about what that means, see the LON-CAPA Author's Manual. It is available online in the \textbf{About LON-CAPA Help and More Help} link at the bottom of this page, if you are viewing this online, or at http://\emph{your LON-CAPA server}/adm/help/abouthelp.html, where {}``\emph{your LON-CAPA server}'' is replaced by the hostname you use to access your server, such as {}``loncapa.msu.edu''.
