At IU, how do I change information displayed in the online IU Address Book and the Global Address List?
On this page:
Introduction
At Indiana University, the information displayed in the online IU Address Book and the Global Address List (GAL) is provided by several university departments, and maintained and cross-checked by several UITS systems. Therefore, the specific instructions for changing information in the IU Address Book and the GAL can vary depending on what you want to change. Additionally, certain fields in the online IU Address Book are controlled by particular offices within the university; only those offices can change them.
Students, faculty, and staff
If you are a student, you can update your address or phone number using Self-Service in OneStart; see At IU, how can students or applicants review or change personal information?
If you are faculty or staff, or want to make changes not available through Self-Service, you can contact your information provider:
- If you are a student, contact the Office of the Registrar on your
campus; see How do I contact the Office of the Registrar at each IU campus?
- If you are an academic appointee,
contact the Dean of Faculties or the academic affairs office on your
campus; see How do I contact the Office of Academic Affairs at each IU campus?
- If you are a non-academic employee, contact your departmental human resources representative or the human resources office on your campus; see How do I contact the human resources office at each IU campus?
Faculty and staff should also fill out and submit the correct Human Resources form:
- Go to OneStart: https://onestart.iu.edu/
- Click the
Servicestab. Click theAdministrative Systemssubtab on the left, and then clickHRMS.
- Under "HRMS Related Links", click
Personal Profile Forms.
- Click
Change Form, Personal Data. This will open the form as a PDF file.
- Print the form, fill it out, and submit it to your information provider.
Note: Your updated information should appear in the IU Address Book and GAL within a minimum of 24 hours and a maximum of a week. If you don't see your updated information after a week, contact your information provider.
Group or departmental accounts
To change the display information for your group or departmental account, which will have no entry in the IU Address Book, contact account administration:
- At IU Bloomington, IU East, IU Northwest, and IU South Bend,
email
valid@indiana.edu.
- At IUPUI, IUPU Columbus, IU Kokomo, and IU Southeast, email
