How to Add Documents to a SharePoint Document Library

by Helen Jones | Jan 30, 2012

When speaking with customers, I often need to supply them with quick "how to" guides that help remind them how to do some of the most common tasks required to be a skilled DocRead administrator.

This post shows you how to add a document to a SharePoint 2010 document library.

1. Within ‘Site Actions’, select ‘View All Site Content’.

2. Select the Document Library that you enabled in the previous step which contains the required documents.

3. Select ‘Add Document’.

4. Use the ‘Browse’ button to navigate to the document you wish to upload and click ‘OK’.

5. Input (or edit for an existing document) information about the document.

Compliance using DocRead

DocRead logoDocRead for SharePoint can help you manage policy compliance by:

  • Targeting documents or policies at specific groups of users
  • Allowing a specific amount of time for users to confirm agreement 
  • Sending email reminders when policy compliance is overdue
  • Users self-certify that they have read and fully understood the policy details
  • Securely storing records of confirmed policy acceptance
  • Monitoring the user acceptance of policies via a reporting suite
  • Providing detailed reading reports and statistics
  • Report drill through to show who has not accepted the policy
  • Automatically sending historic compliance tasks and policies to new users when they are added to a group
  • Bringing policy compliance requests immediately to users attention when they log on

DocRead is simple to install and configure. It seamlessly integrates with SharePoint and can be added to any existing SharePoint site.
