Phonebook Contact

Phonebook Contact (PbContact) liaisons are responsible for maintaining directory information for employees and their unit listing in the UIC Directory. PbContacts are also responsible for creating netids for new employees and adding/removing employees from their unit. They also have access to various tools which allow them to accomplish the various directory related tasks. PbContacts are automatically added to the pbcontact listserv list which is used to send them announcements and other important information.

PbContacts have access to the PbContact TWiki Page where they can find announcements, an FAQ and other resources. To update employee directory information PbContacts should use PbUpdate and DeptUpdate to update unit directory information. External/Temporary affiliates who need netids should be processed and/or renewed through the External Affiliates Page. Each unit should have at least two PbContacts assigned and least one primary PbContact assigned. Please contact directoryservices@uic.edu for support related to the UIC Directory.
