Can't add images to Media Library
-
I got added to my work’s new wordpress blog and was trying to move content over from our old Tumblr to the new blog, but I seem to be unable to add images to our Media Library. The FAQ displays an ‘Add New’ button and an ‘Add Via URL’ button that are not displayed when I open my Media Library. The only possible explanation I can come up with is that there’s some automatic Admin oversight of the Library, and I need to request access from my supervisor? Would that make sense?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Please read this support doc first:
user roles https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/Companies, groups and organizations of any kind do not own blogs.
Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account.
You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard. The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/
* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with the actual blog’s name in that URL.
After the blog’s owner logs in clicking this link should display all blogs registered under the same username account, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden
If the blog’s owner does not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then they need to follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility
If the log-in information is lost they need to visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
If you do not have the required access you need to contact the person who registered the account and site.
Note that they can assign you another user role under it or transfer the site to your username account by using this process. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account -
