Creating libraries
You can create a new library any time, as long as you have fewer than 25 files open.
To create a new library:
Choose File > New > Library. 1.
When you create a new library, it stays open until you manually close it. When 
you launch QuarkXPress, any library palettes that were previously open are
reopened automatically and placed in the default library positions.
Use the controls in the dialog box to specify a location for the new library file. 2.
Enter a name for the library in the Library Name/File name field. 3.
Click Create. 4.
Adding library entries
When you add entries to a library, copies of the items are placed in the library and
displayed as thumbnails. The original items are not removed from the document.
To add entries to an open library:
Select the Item tool . 1.
Select the items or group of items to place in the library. To select multiple 2.
items, press the Shift key while clicking them. However, if you select multiple
items, they will be saved in the library as one entry and not as individual items.
Drag the items or group into the library and release the mouse button when the 3.
Library pointer displays. The library entry is placed between the arrow icons.
