The Media Library is the tool for stocking documents, images and links that are used by the databases for contacts, requirements, legal justifications, etc Every file is registered in a folder created by the administrator of the system. The folders form the Media Library's tree, which has te be ordered in a logical way to rapidly find any files existing in the Media Library. Here are several examples of logics that can be used to create and ordonate the folders of the Media Library: the ranking by elements of the step's sheet (contacts, requirements, legal justifications, etc.): each folder is named after this element and it contents any file used in this particular element of the step's sheet. the ranking by entities in charge: each folder is named after the entity in charge and it contents every file that is used in the steps involving this particular entity in charge. the hybrid ranking: each folder is named after an entity in charge and has sub-folders for each part of the step's sheet.

Those examples are not exhaustive: other logics can be used as long as they allows the user to rapidly find any file in the Media Library. We can edit, modify, rename and delete the registered files directly from the interface of the Media Library.
