A Library Manager is a user who has been specifically granted library management rights by the System Administrator. Only the System Administrator can create Library Managers.

Creating one or more Library Managers for each library is a good strategy. System Administrators can delegate many administrative functions to the library managers making them self-sufficient to manage almost every aspect of document libraries.

What can Library Managers do?

  • Create Users (Local)
  • Create User Groups (Local)
  • Assign and manage document security throughout the Library
  • Assign and manage folder security throughout the Library

To create a Library Manager, perform the following:

  1. Click on "Control Panel" and choose the "libraries" section from the right panel.
  2. Select a library by clicking on the library on the right panel.
  3. Click on the "Library Managers" tab.
  4. Click on the "Add Library Manager" tab.
  5. Select the user you wish to assign as the Library Manager.
  6. Click "OK".
