## Overview
The Library is where your learners browse and discover learning for themselves. Turning on **Available in Library** for a Pathway makes it discoverable there — *"This will allow this pathway to be discoverable in the Library for your Organisation"* — so people can find and self-assign it rather than waiting to be assigned.

## Make a Pathway available in the Library
1. Go to **Pathways** and open the Pathway you want to publish to the Library.
2. In the pathway header, click the **Settings** (cog) icon to open the **Pathway settings** panel.
3. Turn on the **Available in Library** switch.
4. The change saves automatically.

## Add a Library image
When **Available in Library** is on, a **Library image** picker appears. This is the image shown on the Pathway's card in the Library. It uses a 16:9 ratio and, if you leave it empty, falls back to the Pathway's cover image.

1. Under **Library image**, upload or choose an image.
2. It saves automatically and is used on the Library result card.

> **Good to know:** Once a Pathway is available in the Library, you can also restrict who sees it and require approval when learners self-assign it. See *How to Restrict a Library Pathway to Specific Teams* and *How to Require Approval When Learners Self-Assign a Pathway*.

## Things to keep in mind
* Turning **Available in Library** off again clears the Library image and hides the related self-assign approval and restricted-team options.
* A Pathway generally needs to be **Published** before learners can act on it in the Library.
* The Library image is optional — without one, the Pathway's cover image is used on its Library card.

## FAQs
**What does "Available in Library" actually do?**
It makes the Pathway discoverable in your organisation's Library, so learners can find and self-assign it.

**Do I have to add a Library image?**
No. If you leave it empty, the Pathway's cover image is used instead.

**Can I control who sees it in the Library?**
Yes — you can restrict a Library Pathway to specific Teams and require approval for self-assignment. Both options appear once the Pathway is available in the Library.

## Who can do this
**Owners**, **Admins**, **Managers**, **Content Managers** and **Instructors** can make a Pathway available in the Library. **People Managers**, **Employees** and **Restricted** users have read-only access to Pathways and cannot change this setting.
