Libraries in SystemWeaver are used for managing access rights to items. Every item must always belong to exactly one library. The Libraries view is available when an item is selected in the structure tree. You access the view by clicking on the Libraries button on the Items ribbon or by selecting it in the View drop-down list.



When you open the view, the libraries associated with the items viewed in the sub-structure of the selected item (including the selected item itself) will display. In the below example, there are two libraries associated with the items viewed in the "C-ACC" structure. 



The Names of the libraries are displayed in the first column. The Number of items column indicates the number of items in the sub-structure that belong to the specific library. Any library that does not include an item from the sub-structure will display a blank count and the library name will be shown in grayed-out text. In the above example, the "SystemWeaver Demonstration" root library does not have any items from the selected structure assigned to it. 


The Libraries view supports traceability back to the structure tree, i.e., if you select a specific library in the view, the indicator column in the structure tree is highlighted for all items that belong to the selected library. In the example above, most of the sub-items of the "C-ACC" item belong to the "Cybersecurity" library. The "C-ACC " item itself is also assigned to the "Cybersecurity" library indicated by the green highlight in the view. By clicking on a library in the view, you can pinpoint the associated items in the structure. In the example, the "Product" library is selected in the view and there are green indicators in the structure tree to show the location of the assigned items. 


Although you can select and copy a library in this view, it's more efficient to use the Manage libraries page to work on library structures.


Tip: If you have selected a library in the Libraries view, that library will automatically be selected when you open the Manage libraries page.
