Creative Cloud Libraries makes the core design assets for your brand or personal projects available to you anywhere.
Easily collect and organize images, colors, text styles, and other elements created in various Creative Cloud desktop and mobile apps. Then reuse and modify these assets across projects, devices, other Creative Cloud apps, and teams - all from the Creative Cloud Libraries panel. You can add and manage your assets in your libraries using Bridge and easily access those elements in many of the Creative Cloud apps.
Overview of Creative Cloud Libraries
Collect
Creative Cloud Libraries provides a mechanism to collect design assets from various apps, and is not limited to desktop apps only. You can capture inspiration, whenever it strikes, using the family of Creative Cloud mobile apps or even download assets from Adobe Stock.
Manage
You can organize design assets into multiple Creative Cloud Libraries. These may be based on brands, projects, types of assets, or even your personal favorites that you reuse to create your signature style.
Use in designs
Create designs and artwork by using the most up-to-date assets from Creative Cloud Libraries.
Access Creative Cloud Libraries in Bridge
To access your libraries from Bridge, sign in to your Adobe ID account by choosing the Sign In option from the Help menu.
You can access the Creative Cloud Libraries panel from one Bridge window at a time. If you're working with multiple Bridge application windows, then you can open the Libraries Panel in another Bridge window by selecting Open Libraries Here. This moves the Library panel from the non-active Bridge window to the active Bridge window.
Turn on the Library sync
Creative sync makes your libraries accessible across multiple applications, devices, and the web automatically. For cross-device syncing to work, library sync must be enabled in the Creative Cloud desktop app.
Open the Creative Cloud desktop app. (Select the icon in your Windows taskbar or the macOS menu bar.)
Select the Cloud activity icon. Your library sync status will be displayed.
If syncing is paused, select the resume button to enable it.
When you enable library sync, the libraries start syncing. Your libraries are kept up to date across devices. Library sync may take some time, depending on the volume of content in your libraries.
