A Model United Nations conference has to keep track of a great many things. Who is coming. Which committee they sit in. Which country they represent. What they have written. What the committee decided. MediBook is where MEDIMUN keeps all of it.
MediBook is the platform MEDIMUN runs on. You get one account. That account carries you from your first application through to your certificate after the conference is over.
MediBook and the MEDIMUN website are not the same thing. The website is public and tells you about the conference. MediBook is where you sign in and do the work.
Applications are made in MediBook. Schools apply for a delegation. Students apply to chair, to manage a department, or to join one. See Applications overview.
Once you have a place, MediBook is where you prepare. Delegates write and submit position papers there. Chairs write research reports there and the secretariat reviews them. Lobbying starts online before the conference, using the messenger and the call feature.
Each morning you are scanned into the building using a code in MediBook. See The morning register.
In the committee room, the chairs take the roll call in MediBook. Speeches, points, motions, amendments and votes all run through it. Resolutions are written in it. Alliances are declared in it. The room's projector screen is a MediBook page.
Certificates are issued digitally in MediBook. Awards are recorded against the person who won them and printed on their participation certificate. See Certificates.
MediBook also carries the everyday tools the conference runs on. Messenger for chat. Calendar for events. Drive for files and collaborative documents. Tasks for staff work. Invoices for what a school or a person owes. A shop for merchandise. This Library, and a dictionary of MUN terms.
Each of those has its own document in this section.
A conference that runs on a platform has to run on it for everyone. If half the room submits its amendments on the platform and the other half hands the chair a piece of paper, there is no complete record of what was moved, who spoke, or how a vote fell.
That is why MediBook is a requirement and not a convenience. Three rules follow from it, and none of them has an exception. See MediBook is required.
In MEDIMUN, a person without a MediBook account does not receive a certificate and cannot attend.
In MEDIMUN, a delegate who is not declared as a delegate in MediBook does not count as a delegate. They cannot join the committee room.
In MEDIMUN, a delegate without a device cannot take part in debate properly. MEDIMUN does not provide one and does not make allowances for not having one.
In MEDIMUN, chairs must run the committee state, roll calls, alliances, amendments, speeches, voting and position paper feedback in MediBook. That is a rule, not a preference. See Chair obligations in MediBook.
If a committee type is not supported. The debate itself does not have to run in MediBook. Everything else still does.
Anyone aged fourteen or over can create an account. Nobody approves you first. See Creating your account.
One person has one account, on one email address. Somebody the conference team entered in MediBook before they ever signed up claims that account rather than making a second one.
MEDIMUN can close sign-up. While it is closed, no new account can be made by any route, and accounts that already exist carry on as normal.
MEDIMUN can bar a person from taking part. A barred person cannot create an account.
An account that has been switched off cannot sign in and cannot open any part of MediBook. Only the conference team can switch one back on.
A new account is held until it is complete. Until your name, date of birth and phone number are in, and your guardians have consented if you are under eighteen, the only page you can open is the setup screen. This is the ordinary path, not a fault. See Completing your profile.
What MediBook shows you comes from the roles you hold in the conference year that is running.
A delegate sees their committee. A chair sees the chair's side of it. A member sees their department. Somebody with no role yet sees very little, and that is normal for weeks at a time.
Past roles are shown on your profile and grant nothing. When a new conference year becomes the current one, everything last year's role let you do stops.
Some parts of MediBook are for the conference team only. The full list of users, the school records and the location records are the main ones. Nothing else is offered to you and they cannot be reached another way.
Any signed in person can open any other person's profile card. What is held back is contact details. Your email address, phone number, date of birth and best time to reach are shown only to you and to the conference team.
Everything you can do on the website you can do in the mobile app, and nothing more. The app is not a way around a rule. See The mobile app.
