American
Journal of Criminal Law SharePoint Instructions
SharePoint is how AJCL members share and
preserve their work.
SharePoint is easy to use, and all members should be familiar with how
we use this service.
To begin, go to AJCL.org or
http://www.utexas.edu/law/journals/ajcl/
and look for the SharePoint link.
You will be asked to identify yourself when you click the link.
Use your UTEID user name and password to enter the site. If your
ID is rejected, you should email the Managing Editor
(managing.ajcl@gmail.com) to ensure your UTEID has been added to the
"AJCL Members" group. You should receive a notification email
when you have been granted access.
As soon as you successfully log in, you will see many self explanatory
features, such as "What's New," showing the latest work submitted,
"Announcements," telling you if there's anything important going on,
and the "AJCL Calendar," which may be used to inform you of upcoming
BBCC sessions and other activities. It can be helpful to glance
over these areas, but the most important section of this main page is
the "Documents" section on the left. Note the three categories
marked by the blue arrows:
- AJCL Shared Documents,
where we store most of our files
- AJCL Editorial Documents,
where we store the finished product of each editorial stage
- Outline Bank,
where our staff share their outlines from law school courses
Editorial Documents
How to
add members to AJCL
If you are the Managing Editor and need to add several members to
SharePoint, the process is simple. Click the "Site Actions"
button to activate the pull down menu, and select "Site Settings."
Then, click "People and Groups,"
Ensure you are modifying membership in
the
"AJCL Members" group (UT has automatically added numerous other
groups). By default, AJCL Members should be highlighted on the
left as marked below. Click "New" to activate the dropdown menu
and select "Add Users." You can also remove members via the
"Actions" drop down menu.
From there, you will reach the "add user" screen.
Click OK when you're done.
