Selecting a Library Group

When adding or editing a data source connection, you can select a library group. When adding or editing a document collection, you can also select a library group if you want the collection to have a library group different from the library group for the data source containing the collection.

Library groups allow your West km users to restrict searches of your internal documents, for example, to search within office locations or practice categories.

To select an existing library group, in the Library Group list, select the library group name.

To define a new library group,

  1. In the Library Group list, click New.
  2. In the Library Group Name box, type a name for the library group.

You can manage library groups at Setup, User Interface, Library Group, Current Library Groups. As well as adding library groups, you can rename and delete library groups at that location. For more information, see Setup, User Interface, Library Group.

Note: A library group cannot be deleted if it is being used by one or more document collections. In this situation, first edit those document collections so they use a different library group. To view the library groups currently in use, access the Manage Collections page and check the Library Group column in the table.

Library group changes are not reflected in full-text searches until you re-index the document collection (incremental or bulk) and update full-text indexes. New library groups will not appear in the end-user interface for any currently running West km sessions until the user closes and re-opens the Web browser.
