There are several areas in the Content Collection:
The My Content area is used to store files and folders for each user. Clicking on the My Content Area faculty will get access to their personal files that have been added to the Content Collection. Shared files and folders will not display under the My Content area. Faculty will need to use the Search feature to locate files and folders that other people have shared with them.
The Institution Content area is used to store files for educational and administrative units. This area can have files that the department or college has set up for several faculty to have access to.
This is the place where the university library may post e-Reserves materials, electronic resources, or other library-related content. Content can be made available either through the Library Content folder or through e-Reserves. Only librarians may post materials on e-Reserves, but faculty can add e-Reserves content to their Blackboard courses and student will have Read persmissions to the files.
This area has the Bookmarks feature which allows to bookmark files and folders for faster access. The Search Content feature allows to use Basic or Advanced Search to locate materials in the Blackboard Content Collection to which faculty have permission. Search results can be saved.
