Hi,

I want to create a document library that potentially could hold hundreds of documents. I want the documents to be available over multiple courses. My logic was to create a Library Dashboard - I can see that I am able to add a Private Files Block that allows the creation of a directory structure. The Private Library is only available on a single user level. Is there anyway that I can create a directory structure outside of a course that will allow access a directory of documents.

Thanks

Peter

Hi Peter

It is possible to setup a site wide repository so files are saved and shared on the server. 

A user needs to have the capability view server repository to see the repository  The (site manager, editing trainer and trainer roles have this by default.

To access the files within a course the user needs the manage files capability 

Also read about how to make a copy of the file or make an alias of the file to enable you to use the same file across different courses.

regards
