Short session (15 min) as given on November 5th 2015 for Social Connections 9 in Stuttgart, Germany Abstract: "IBM Connections has several options to store and share files which often confuses users and administrators alike. Knowing the differences between community files & folders, personal files & folders and CCM libraries and being able to explain them can make your life a lot easier. But is this something that can be explained in 15min?!? Probably not but in this session Femke will nonetheless take a stab at it and give you an overview of the most important differences and functionalities in handling files & folders within IBM Connections and give you some handles on how to answer those pesky questions your users might have."
