New Feature: Introducing Echo360 Collections

Contributed by Jenni Willis-Opalenik, Ph.D., Director - OIT Technology Learning Services

One of my pet peeves about Echo360 has been its lack of a mechanism to organize my Echo360 Library. With my library quickly approaching 900 files, some type of folder structure would provide a welcome relief. I am pleased to announce that Echo360 has recently launched such a solution - Echo360 Collections.

Echo360 Collections replaces the previous Groups feature in Echo360. However, it also extends the functionality of the tool so that users can create Collections "folders" into which they can organize the contents of their Library. NOTE: Adding a video from your Library does not remove it from the Library itself; however, the Collections folders make it easier to locate specific videos. For a quick look at the new feature, please watch our team's video, Crash Course - Echo360 Collections [3:29]​.

You may also want to review some of the support pages from Echo360 about Collections, especially the following:
