We have been working with our
00:00:01
team for quite some time in a
00:00:04
SharePoint site and we have been
00:00:05
using the default Documents library.
00:00:08
The thing is, I would like to make
00:00:10
sure that the folders related to
00:00:12
our clients are actually regrouped
00:00:14
in a specific place and not in the
00:00:17
middle of all the other documents,
00:00:19
just to make sure that these do not get lost.
00:00:22
To do so, I'm going to go and
00:00:25
create a second library.
00:00:27
I'm going to start by going to the home
00:00:30
page and click on New Document Library.
00:00:35
Here a few choices.
00:00:36
I can start with a blank library
00:00:39
which will contain no metadata from
00:00:42
an existing one, which will copy
00:00:45
the metadata from another library.
00:00:47
Be careful if you use this option,
00:00:49
it will complete the metadata,
00:00:51
but not the files and folders inside
00:00:54
of the library you choose to copy.
00:00:57
You can also use templates that will
00:01:00
already have metadata applied to them.
00:01:03
Let's create a black one.
00:01:06
This one will be dedicated for the
00:01:09
clients for this and would like
00:01:11
to show it in the site navigation.
00:01:15
Here I am in the new document library.
00:01:19
Please note that when you create a
00:01:22
document library, the authorizations
00:01:23
are the same as your sites.
00:01:26
The members can modify things,
00:01:28
the visitors can only read the documents
00:01:31
and the owners can do just about anything.
00:01:34
If you now wish to navigate between your
00:01:37
libraries in a time efficient manner, you
00:01:40
have this button on the right of the name.
00:01:43
By left clicking on it you can
00:01:45
find the other document libraries.
00:01:48
Do I want to go back to the
00:01:51
template one next click?
00:01:53
And here I am.
