  <h3><a name="_Toc421867084">Domains</a></h3>
  <p><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Every user in LON-CAPA is member of one domain. 
    A domain can be institutional and &quot;open&quot;, for example &quot;msu&quot; 
    or &quot;wscc&quot; - open means that in it there can be students, authors 
    and other users. A domain can also be functional, for example &quot;timss_tests&quot; 
    or &quot;smith_publishersÓ. Physically, every domain needs at least one dedicated 
    library server.</span></p>
  <h3><a name="_Toc421867085">Userdata</a></h3>
  <p>Every user in the system has one library server, which is their home server. 
    It stores the authoritative copy of all of their records. Internally, this 
    data is stored in a directory </p>

  <h3><a name="_Toc421867088">Custom Roles</a></h3>
  <p>Course Coordinators are able to define named &quot;Custom Roles&quot; for 
    their courses within a pre-defined set of capabilities. In addition to these 
    custom roles, there are three standard course faculty/staff roles defined, 
    Instructor, Exam Proctor and TA. The instructor of record in a small class 
    is likely to be &quot;Course Coordinator&quot; and &quot;Instructor&quot; 
    during the term when the course is running, and might remain course coordinator 
    afterwards. Course coordinator can assign themselves new roles for their course 
    anytime.</p>

  <p>Custom role definitions are stored in the <span
