# Library overview

> How the Assets tree, smart views, collections, moodboards, share links, and saved teardowns fit together.

Library answers: **where do my best teardowns, media, and extracted assets live after I save them?**

Your Library is the workspace for turning research into a durable reference system. It holds starred analyses, starred media, cutouts, clean plates, extracted assets, collections, moodboards, and share links.

## What lives in Library

| Surface     | What it stores                                                                         |
| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Assets tree | File-based folders for images, clips, cutouts, clean plates, and exports               |
| Smart views | Automatic views for recent items, starred media, starred analyses, and similar filters |
| Collections | Curated groups for a launch, client, category, or creative direction                   |
| Moodboards  | Visual boards for references, cutouts, frames, and extracted assets                    |
| Share links | Public or team-only links when sharing is available for that item                      |

Team workspaces add a shared Library and pooled credits. See [Team plan & seats](/billing/team-plan-seats).

## How items get into Library

* Star an analysis from a teardown or analyses list.
* Star a media item, frame, cut, cutout, or clean plate.
* Save extracted assets from Asset Extractor.
* Add items into a collection or moodboard.
* Use the Chrome extension's star-to-Library action.

## Good Library structure

Use one of these patterns:

* **By campaign:** Launch, Black Friday, Product Hunt, webinar, feature release
* **By category:** Founder videos, UGC ads, cinematic brand films, product demos
* **By client or team:** Client A, Client B, sales enablement, growth tests
* **By job:** Hooks, proof moments, product screens, sound references, transitions
