Creating, opening, and saving libraries

You create and open libraries as you do other AppleWorks documents.

To save or close a library, you choose commands from the File menu on the
library palette.

Tip

You can open libraries more quickly if you store them in the Library

folder. If a library is in the AppleWorks Libraries folder (in the same folder
as the AppleWorks application), you can open that library by choosing Library
from the File menu, and then choosing the name of the library.
