At the library level, there are the following types of (administrative) permissions:

• user management – for creating and removing users, and making changes in their accounts;
• group management – for creating and removing user groups, and for modifying them (note: in order to be able to change assignments of users to groups, one needs to have user management as well as group management permissions);
• attribute management – for creating, removing, and modifying attributes;
• uncontrolled attribute dictionary management – for managing synonym dictionaries for those attributes which are not marked as controlled (note: that does not apply to adding new values – in order to allow adding new publications, every user can add new values to an uncontrolled attribute dictionary);
• controlled attribute dictionary management – for managing synonym dictionaries for those attributes which are marked as controlled (note: that permission does not imply the right to manage uncontrolled attributes);
• language management – for managing interface and metadata languages;
• tag management – for managing all users’ tags in the Administrator Application;
• collection management – for creating, removing, and modifying collections; and
• web application management – for logging into the administration panel of the web application and using the functions available there.

The administrative permissions of a user or group can be changed by indicating the element in the tree on the left and selecting the “Administrative permissions” tab (see the image below).
