Building the Learning Library Structure

After you have created the document library (also referred to as authoring files), you are ready to create and populate, or import the Learning Library with a folder hierarchy. This hierarchy reflects how the content will be displayed to the end user in the Learning Library end user website.

You can build the Learning Library hierarchy by manually creating folders or by importing in a folder structure via a CSV file.

The folder properties allow you to specify the folder's location, how content within the folder is sorted by default and enter translations for the folder's name and description. The available languages are based on the project's settings. Refer to Creating and Managing the Project for more information. The language that displays for the end user is based on the end user's locale. Refer to Creating and Managing User Accounts for more information.
