On the top-level home pages of the intranet portal, i.e., Faculty, Students, department home pages, etc. found across the top of the page after you sign in, you will find an area for 'My Favorites' that will most likely be empty on your first visit. This area is for you to add your own set of links that you use most often:

So, how do you add a new link to your My Favorites? The first thing you should do is click on the blue link that says 'Add new link'. You will be taken to the following page:

Just like adding favorites or bookmarks in your Web browser, you should give your new link a friendly title and provide the Web address of the link:

Things to note: SharePoint has some built-in functionality that is fundamental to the organization of any SharePoint site. This includes the items found under the Privacy and Grouping section of the page above. Currently, we are not necessarily using the My Colleagues, My Workgroup, or My Manager features, so you will likely want to choose either Everyone or Only Me for the 'Show these links to:' option:

The Grouping option allows you to group your links into categories. This is beneficial if you have many links in your My Favorites area. You can either select one of the default options provided by SharePoint, General or Best Bets, (I recommend placing them in the General category for now - you can always reorganize later):

Or, alternatively, you can create your own category:

Click the OK button and you will be taken back to your previous page, where you should now find the new link in your My Favorites area.
