Email

Scholars@Duke pulls your email address from the public Duke Directory.

After you log in, under the Directory Listing section, you will see an option to "Manage Directory Privacy." From here, toggle on the "Do not publish email" option. After updating this setting, your email address will be hidden from the external directory and in 24 hours it should be removed from your Scholars@Duke Profile page.
  • To change other email settings, go to the "Accounts" tab in Duke OIT Self-Service, then the "Email" section and click "Manage Email Settings."

Phone Numbers

Faculty/Staff: Update this phone number in Duke@Work in the "External Mailing Address and Phone" section. To mark your phone number as private (will not display in Scholars or to anyone outside of the Duke network that views the campus directory), contact the OIT Help Desk.

Students: Update your preferred phone number in DukeHub. To hide your phone number from the Duke Directory and from Scholars, visit the OIT Self-Service tool and toggle on phone number privacy under "Manage Directory Privacy."
