Work with document libraries

Document libraries are used as the collection containers for the Document Manager portlet.

The Document Libraries administrative portlet enables us to create and maintain individual document libraries. The Document Libraries portlet is automatically installed with IBM WebSphere Portal. As an administrator, we can use the Document Libraries portlet to configure the settings for individual libraries, such as versioning, approvals workflow, and document locking. The settings you configure affect the way users can work in that library instance within the Document Manager portlet.
