OurBrant:How to add a photo

The process of adding a photo to a page on Our Brant is going to be upgraded soon to make it easier. In the meantime, if you don't feel comfortable submitting a photo yourself, you can bring it in to the Paris branch at 12 William Street or submit it by e-mail to the Reference Librarian using this form. We'll take care of adding it for you.

Adding a photo

1. On the left side of your screen, look for the text that says "Upload a new image." Click on it.
   




2. Click the Browse button.
   




3. Locate your file, and click on it. Then click the Open button.
   




4. Enter your photo in the box that says Destination filename:, then type a short description of your photo in the box that says Summary:
   




5. Click the box next to the word Licensing:
   • If you took this photo, or you otherwise own the copyright to it, click on the option that says I took this photo
   • If you took this photo, or you otherwise own the copyright to it, and you want to give other people the right to share and reuse it under the terms of a Creative Commons license, click on the option that says This is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike License
   • If you know that this photo is in the public domain, click on the option that says This is in the public domain
   




6. Click the button that says "Upload file".
   




7. Now you can use a form to edit a page, or create a new page. On that form, click on the button that says "Add another" in the part of the form that talks about photos.
   




8. Now just type in the name you gave the photo, and a short caption to be shown underneath it.
   




9. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click "Save page".
   

You're done! Your photo will be shown on the right side of the page.
