You can access libraries in the following ways:
Across projects
Whatever you save in the Libraries panel becomes available for use across Premiere Pro projects that you are working on.
Across computers
Libraries are synced to Creative Cloud. Your Library becomes available on any computer that you are signed into using your Creative Cloud ID.
Across apps
Whatever you save in the Libraries panel becomes automatically available across desktop and mobile apps that support Creative Cloud Libraries.
For example, you can access Libraries from desktop apps such as, After Effects, Photoshop, and mobile apps such as Adobe Hue.
You can create any number of libraries to organize your assets. The libraries that you create are displayed in the Library panel in Premiere Pro.
To create a library, do the following:
You can save color grading information that you applied to a clip as a Look. To upload a Look to your library, follow these steps:
A .look file is created with the same name as the selected clip. The uploaded Look is displayed as a thumbnail in the Libraries panel.
Adobe Stock is a service that sells millions of high-quality, royalty-free photos, videos, illustrations, and graphics.

You can also choose these options from the context menu of the listed asset.
If Adobe Stock assets don’t show up automatically in your Library, click the Sync button in the lower right corner of the panel (the Creative Cloud icon) to perform a manual sync. Your assets now appear in the Library.
If you add a preview version of an asset to your Library, you can license it later. To license the asset, click/right-click it, and from the context menu select "Buy Image…" for a still preview, and “Buy Video…” for a video preview. When you license the asset, all linked instances of the asset in your open files are automatically updated to the licensed, high-resolution asset without the watermark.
When you license an asset, all unlicensed copies used in any sequence are automatically replaced with the full-quality version and edits are preserved.
