The Resource Library is how head office gets documents to the network — brand guidelines, price lists, operations manuals, training packs, artwork files. You upload them into collections; your tribes download them.

How it is organised
Two levels, and no more: a Category holds Collections, and a collection holds files. There are no nested folders and no tags — use categories for the broad split and collections for the actual bundle of files somebody needs.
What a tribe sees
Tribes get a read-only library: preview, copy link, download. They cannot upload, edit or delete anything.
Searching
One search box, which looks at collection names, their comments, and the names of the files inside them. It does not read inside documents — so name your files properly. "2026-price-list-trade.pdf" is findable; "final_v3.pdf" is not.
