WIN 10 - Using Library to organize your Data

Library is similar to a folder. For example, when you open a Library, you'll see one or more files. 

However, unlike a folder, a Library gathers files that are stored in several locations. This is a subtle, but important, difference. Libraries don't actually store your files, just shortcuts to them. 

Libraries monitor folders that contain your files, and let you access and arrange the files in different ways. For instance, if you have music files in folders on your hard disk and on an external drive you can access all of your music files at once using the Music Library.

You don't need to duplicate the data however you can link all the related material in different folders in same or different libraries to allow you "brain organize material"

Example:
You can collect all Louise Hay material in one "Folder" as well as from other authors however you have a Library called "Mind & Body" where you list things by modalities like: affirmations, meditation, energy healing, intuition, tapping, etc. 

Folder:  (original data)                     Library: Mind & Body (Just link access)
Authors > Louise Hay                      Folder: Affirmation: Louise Hay, Wayne Dyer, etc.
Authors > Wayne Dyer                    Folder:  Meditations: Louise Hay, Sonia Choquette

Now DO NOT DELETE directly any file from the Library

To remove a folder from a library, open the library, click or tap the Manage librarybutton on the Manage tab, select the folder you want to remove, click or tap Remove, and then click or tap OK
