# Editing a published Node

Knowledge is dynamic, and your Nodes should reflect that. You can always make changes to your Nodes, even once they are published. This works exactly like creating a Node from scratch. 

From your [#collection](https://docs.desci.com/general-user-overview#collection "mention"), select the published Node you want to update. As the creator, your Nodes will always open up in edit mode for you (unless you log out and open it via a public share link).

From here, open up the [node-drive-panel](https://docs.desci.com/general-user-overview/node-workspace/node-drive-panel "mention") by clicking <img src="https://3561840309-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FMYxRLCpbB6u9NiTwuU16%2Fuploads%2FVfE5qsdCErs0EmU9QPOw%2FDriveHamburger_Button.jpg?alt=media&#x26;token=5053df35-5943-4501-b49a-db96162d3fd1" alt="" data-size="line"> in the top left corner or use the [information-panel](https://docs.desci.com/general-user-overview/node-workspace/information-panel "mention") <img src="https://3561840309-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FMYxRLCpbB6u9NiTwuU16%2Fuploads%2Fu7eUza1Z098zBAnwTcAE%2FScreenshot%202024-02-02%20at%2000.10.02.jpg?alt=media&#x26;token=ac3c9937-448e-4591-88f6-9408956b01a5" alt="Screenshot 2024-02-02 at 00.10.02.jpg" data-size="line"> in the upper right corner to make adjustments to your Node. Now you can [add components](https://docs.desci.com/create-and-publish/create-a-node/add-components), [change component titles](https://docs.desci.com/create-and-publish/create-a-node/organise-access-and-present/component-presentation/renaming-components), and [annotate your Node](https://docs.desci.com/create-and-publish/create-a-node/add-information/add-comments).
