[Web4lib] Account Security and Management

[Alma Garcia]

I do not like shared accounts.  Each staff person has their own 
username/password.  It is a little more work, but I can control who has 
access to what much better.

Everybody basically can not only manage his own folder, but also possible to mess up other people's folders. It has been working in this way for years and occationally bad things happened when somebody accidentally messed up our library homepage. I am wondering how you guys manage your sites to set up permissions to allow the subject librarians to access the server. Do you create acccount for each individual librarian to access the library server?
