<strong>Web</strong> content libraries<br />

A web content library <strong>is</strong> used to store a set of web content items. You assign library-level access controls<br />

to determine the default level of access to the items in the library and define the default access to the<br />

authoring portlet of different users and groups.<br />

Elements<br />

Elements either store web content or generate web content. Elements do not ex<strong>is</strong>t as free-standing items.<br />

You store elements in container web content items. For example, menu and navigator elements are used to<br />

generate links between web pages. HTML and rich text elements are used to store HTML. Some element<br />

types can be stored in site areas, content items, and components. Others can only be stored as<br />

components.<br />

Item types<br />

Items can be considered as files or documents and are used to store web content, metadata, and access<br />

control information.<br />

Site areas and content items represent different sections of a site<br />

framework. You can store more than one element in site areas and<br />

content items. Components store a single element type.<br />
