# Managing Users | ||

1. Log in to Drupal. You will need the Administrator role to Manage Users. | ||
1. Click the **Manage** tab from the top toolbar. | ||

1. Enter all required fields, as indicated by red asterisks, in the *Add user* page. | ||
1. In the *Roles* section, click on the roles that the new user will need. | ||
- Click on "Administrator" if the new user will need to be able to run administrative tasks in Drupal or Islandora 8. | ||
- Click on "fedoraAdmin" if the new user will need to be able to write to Fedora. This is required by the WebAC authentication so Islandora 8 and Fedora can communicate. | ||

- Site language | ||
- *English* selected by default. | ||
- Contact Settings section | ||
- *Personal contact form* selected by default. | ||
1. Click on the **Create New Account** button at the bottom of the *Add user* page to finish adding a new user. | ||
