What is UWaterloo Scholar?
The University of Waterloo is using OpenScholar, an open source software solution built on Drupal, to provide dynamic and customizable personal websites for Waterloo faculty, researchers, graduate students and retired faculty members. Faculty and researcher personal sites are offered on a self-serve basis and are built using the WatIAM userid of the faculty member or researcher.
A request must be submitted to delete or remove UWaterloo Scholar sites.
Guidelines
Owners of UWaterloo Scholar sites must:
- Only use as a personal website for communicating professional and academic work/achievements with your full name as the site title.

- Ensure copyright and other legal compliance; ensure consistency with University policy and guidelines; best practice.
- Inform WCMS support if you are leaving the University of Waterloo or if the site is no longer required for any reason.
