Updating your organisation page

Your organisation page is your public profile on Victorian Collections; it is where users will go to find out about your collection, your contact details and how they can visit. 

To manage the information that is publicly shared about your organisation, you'll need to follow these steps.

Please note: Only users with the Update Organisation Details permission enabled can update the Organisation page. If you cannot see the Organisation tile, or the Update button when following the instructions below, you can check who at your organisation has the required permissions to update this information. 

Go to the Organisation tile on the Dashboard and select About . You can also navigate to this section by clicking the three horizontal lines in the top left corner, and selecting About under Organisation in the pop-in side window.

To add new, or edit information about your organisation, select the Update button in the top-right corner to begin.

 

You can navigate through the different Sections on the left, to update the relevant fields included on the right. Enter as much detail as possible about your organisation, its location, contact information and details of your collection. You can also add a file for your organisation's logo. Ensure that your members are aware if their contact details are being provided as the organisational contact (e.g. where the public email address used may be the Secretary's direct email).

When you have finished updating your organisation's information, click Save in the top right corner to finalise the changes and ensure they are now available on the public website.
