Registering as a Group
Dear Colleagues,
Many of you may belong to consortia, professional societies or other associations that have committees or working groups dedicated to nanomaterial safety issues. In addition to registering as an individual, consider having your committee register and contribute as a group. This option permits the posting of information by an authoritative source without attribution to any one individual in the group. One way to approach this is to have your group develop content offline, e.g., during committee meetings or with subcommittees, and designate one or more committee members to post the content to the GoodNanoGuide.
To exercise this option during the registration process, input the contact information of the lead liaison to the GNG in the relevant fields and indicate the name of your group in the notes section. Your group will be assigned an identifiable username and a password. Anyone logging into the GNG with these credentials will then be posting on behalf of the group.
Group members may still register as individuals even if they are part of a registered group. The individual will have a username (his/her own name) and password distinct from that of the group.
