The name in the profile is pulled in from the university&#8217;s HR system so to update the record, the author should contact <a href=\"mailto:humanresources@napier.ac.uk\">humanresources@napier.ac.uk<\/a> to have their name details updated in the HR system. This name change will then be automatically updated in Worktribe. Please note that HR require official documentation of your new name (e.g. marriage certificate, deed poll) to enable them to update your records.<\/p>\n<p>You should also contact the repository at <a href=\"mailto:repository@napier.ac.uk\">repository@napier.ac.uk<\/a> to inform us that a name has changed on the version of record (the official published version), provide a new copy of the manuscript, and we will update the repository record to ensure our data reflects the new name.<\/p>\n<p>It may be the case that an author has not (yet) been able to change their name on a publication but asks us to change their name on the repository record. <span class=\"TextRun SCXW105433978 BCX2\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW105433978 BCX2\">We will respect the author\u2019s new name and make the change in the repository.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The process for changing a name on Napier-awarded postgraduate theses is slightly different.
