If your Carlpedia administrator has customised your Carlpedia site, then the menus may appear in different positions from those shown here.

If you are not logged in to Carlpedia, the 'Browse' menu and the 'User' menu will not appear. Instead, a 'Log In' link will appear.

The image below gives an overview of the menus in Carlpedia. The menus give you access to all the available actions on your Carlpedia site.
