windows7 provides a new approach for
accessing files with libraries and
desktop search you can view your
libraries by clicking on the windows
explorer icon on the taskbar these are
your default libraries documents music
pictures and videos libraries give you
an easier way to find your stuff so you
don't have to spend lots of time
navigating through various folders
they're also integrated with the desktop
search feature which means you can
search for files much more quickly when
they're part of a library to use
libraries you first have to add folders
to them let's add a folder to our
pictures library right-click a folder go
to include and library and then click
pictures and folder hasn't moved it's
still on the desktop but it now also
appears in the pictures library when you
add a folder to a library its contents
are indexed so the desktop search can
work much more quickly if you start
typing in the search box in the upper
right it will immediately start locating
matching items even before you finish
typing to be even more organized you can
add tags and other details to the files
in your library making the search much
more powerful the details that you can
add will vary depending on the file type
let's add a tag to an image click on an
image and then where it says add a tag
add a keyword of your choice will type
yellow then click Save you can add more
than one tag just be sure to separate
them with semicolons now when you search
for these keywords you'll instantly see
those images you can also add a search
filter to filter by type date or other
criteria the more details you add to
your files the more powerful your search
will become if you want you can create
your own libraries if you're working on
a project you may want to have a library
so you can easily get to all of the
folders pertaining to that project click
on libraries and then click new library
we'll name our as Africa now you can add
any folders you like to the new library
so that's how Windows 7 uses libraries
and desktop search to make organizing
and finding your files easier than ever
