Every faculty member has access to a document repository in Interfolio called “Interfolio Dossier”. The Interfoio Dossier isn't a part of UCLA's faculty activity reporting and personnel review but it provides features that individual faculty might find useful. This article provides an overview of the Dossier feature.
Interfolio Dossier
The Dossier feature may be useful to you in the following ways:
Creating collections of materials related to your case,
Sharing files in progress with department coordinators,
Saving materials from your case to your Dossier.

Navigate to your Dossier
On the top right hand corner of your screen, click on your name and select “Interfolio Dossier”.
You will land on the Dossier homepage. To return to Faculty 180, click your name again and select “University of California Los Angeles.
Please note: Interfolio provides a service to solicit and deliver letters of recommendation for your personal use. This part of the Dossier service is in no way affiliated with UCLA. See Interfolio’s guidance for additional information. Our focus will be on using the repository rather than the letter service.
