Team Member Management
Each person working on the yearbook must be assigned a unique team member login. Team member roles assign permissions and responsibilities to individuals to manage and edit the yearbook.
The Importance of Unique Logins
To log into Memento Yearbook, you must type a username and password. As per Memento’s Terms of Use, every member of your yearbook committee needs their own personal username & password.
It is strongly recommended that the Editor-in-Chief immediately set up separate user logins for all other persons who need to work on the book. Team members should never share a single login for the following reasons:
- Data loss: Simultaneous editing on a single page on two computers is not available in Memento Yearbook. If you share a single login, two or more people would be able access the same page at the same time, which leads to version issues with the page and data loss.
- No page assignments: You cannot assign pages to individuals – no one is responsible for a particular section or page in the book.
- No progress tracking: There is no way to track who made changes to a page. If someone makes unauthorized changes to the book, you won’t know who did it. You won’t know who reviewed or commented on pages, or even submitted the yearbook for printing.
If you do not have a unique login, please contact your Editor-in-Chief and request a username of your own.
Team Member Roles
Memento Yearbook provides three team member roles to choose from: Editor-in-Chief, Editor, and Staffer.
