How to edit a wiki page

  • Open your browser of choice (Firefox or Internet Explorer)
  • Access the MIT Wikis Dashboard
  • Select Libraries Monograph Cataloging
    • Consider bookmarking this page for ease of access at later dates
  • Navigate to the page that you plan to edit
    • For the purposes of this training, we will use "Cataloging work-supply" as an example
  • Click the Edit button in the upper right-hand corner of the page. This will open up the editing pane, defaulting to the Rich Text tab.

  • Ignore the text found at the top of the page, from “Monograph Cataloging Documentation" through "column:width=68%"
    • DO NOT EVER MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THE ABOVEMENTIONED TEXT! It sets the parameters of the page and should be left alone.

  • Use the toolbar at the top of the pane to adjust text, insert symbols, or build a table. Separate instructions explain how to insert a picture or add a link . 

  • To preview your changes, choose the Preview tab.

  • When you have finished making edits, click the Save button in the lower right-hand corner.
