Featured Content

   This section lists the five pieces of content in the Library most recently designated as “featured.” If no content has been featured, this section does not display.

Popular Tags

This tag cloud shows you how the content in your Library has been labeled. Tags are descriptive terms assigned during upload or revision that help classify and organize content.

My Personal Content

My Personal Content

The My Personal Content tab on the Library home page is your private Library.

When you upload or create content and do not select a public Library, your content is stored in your private Library. You can publish content to a public Library at any time or leave content in your private Library indefinitely. Content in your private Library can be assembled in content packs and custom presentations. It can also be sent to leads and contacts outside your organization using the content delivery feature. See Setting up Content Deliveries for more information.

The My Personal Content tab has the following sections:

Personal Library

You can publish or delete files from this list or click the file's name to view its content details page.

If you publish a file from the Personal Library list and click Cancel during the publishing process, your file is deleted.
