Updated Website Directory

Introducing an updated web directory experience and a new tool to manage employee information.

Home Collegewide Information Technology Web Directory Management Tool

Overview

In 2019, while the Los Rios colleges and district office were moving our websites into a single content management system, we identified the need for a more efficient and consolidated directory management strategy. At that time, a quick solution was implemented to support timely website launches, and that system served the websites (albeit imperfectly) for several years.

After collecting feedback from employees and students and expending great creative and technical effort, we launched a new website directory management tool that dramatically improved upon the previous system in April 2023.

Features of the New Tool

Improved Website Experience

For students, employees, and community members using our websites, the new directory interface:

  • Allows employee information to be accessible across all our websites, rather than just on an employee's "home college" website.
  • Displays multiple job roles (and related contact information) that an individual employee may fill.

Better Information Management

When it comes to managing directory information, our new tool:

  • Empowers employees to manage their own information, rather than having to submit requests through the web team.
  • Provides more accurate information because it is connected to data sources such as PeopleSoft.

Employee Checklist to Update Directory Information

The following checklist outlines what actions employees need to take to review and update their information. Please take a few minutes and review/update your information using the following steps.

Navigate to Web Directory Update Tool

Go to the Web Directory Update Tool (you will be required to log in via Single Sign-On to access the page).

Employees can also access it via the Employee Login drop-down on any employee-facing website or at hub.losrios.edu.

Review Name and Identification Information

Verify your name and identification information are correct.

If any of this information is incorrect or outdated, then you can update it in Employee Self-Service. It can take up to 48 hours to see PeopleSoft changes reflected in the Web Directory Update Tool.

Add and Reorder Job Roles

If you have an additional role that is not displaying, you can add it via the "Add a job role" link. Note that your primary job role must be displayed on the website. You can reorder your job roles if you'd prefer to display a different primary role.
