## TL;DR

|

_Libraries_ are virtual collections of media.<br/>
|
||||
They can contain files from several different locations on the server.
|
||||
|
||||
One will see a page to add libraries when they first create the server.<br/>
|
||||
Libraries can be then added, modified, or removed at any time from the settings.

1. Log in to Jellyfin's web interface in the web browser.
|
||||
1. On the user menu in the top right corner, select _Dashboard_.
|
||||
1. On the left side menu, in the _Server_ section, select _Libraries_ > _Libraries_.
|
||||
1. Take action:
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
- Click the hamburger menu of the library to delete, then select _Remove_ to delete it.

A single library can encompass multiple paths.<br/>
|
||||
Exclude a folder and its children from scans by creating **empty** `.ignore` files within those directories.<br/>
|
||||
Exclude only specific files and folders from scans by **listing** them in the `.ignore` file within their directory. Use
|
||||
the same format as git's `.gitignore` files. This feature is available since version 10.11.
|
||||
|
||||
The three most common types of content are _movies_, _shows_, and _music_.<br/>
|
||||
These have the best support in client apps. One can also add other types of media, such as books or photos.<br/>
|
||||
When having different types of media in a single folder, one can also label it as _mixed_. In this case, it will be a
|
||||
generic folder view that displays all files in that library. Use of this type is currently discouraged.
|
||||
|
||||
Jellyfin **suggests** organizing and naming files in specific ways depending on their content type.<br/>
|
||||
Doing so automates the recognition process, but allows to manually identify the media later.

Refer [Media / Movies][documentation / media / movies].
|

|
||||
Movies should be organized into individual folders for each movie. The folder can optionally contain extra files.<br/>
|
||||
The folder containing the movie should be named in the format `Name (optional year) [optional metadata provider id]`.
