Website additions and amendments
Do you want to post an announcement or report any content that needs changing? If so, please contact the web editorial team for your faculty or department.
News
Placing news items about your research on the University website can help bring your research findings to a wider audience. Your senior editor can help you contact the right people. This would be your own faculty web editorial team, the press communication adviser or the University's central editors. Even if your news does not relate to research, you can talk to your faculty's editorial team or the University's editors.
Profile page
All members of staff at the University have their own profile page on the website. The information shown on your profile page is in part generated by various underlying systems. Read here how you can change these details yourself or have them changed.
Internal newsletter
The internal newsletter is compiled and sent by the central staff editors every Tuesday afternoon. If you would like to provide input for the newsletter, such as an announcement or a calendar item, submit your input before 12.00 on Thursday to: medewerkersportal@leidenuniv.nl. This gives enough time for topics and texts to be reviewed, edited and translated. Always deliver the required information as completely and clearly as possible in one message. Do not forward long e-mail exchanges.
Please note that submitting a text on time does not guarantee publication. The staff editorial team has the right to alter or refuse content.
Agenda, courses and announcements
Would you like to publish an agenda item, a course or an announcement on the website? Then submit the completed template for agenda items or the completed template for courses or an announcement in Word (maximum of 500 words, please consult 'Writing for web') to the staff editor .
