# Library

**Library is the central source of truth**

Digital assets are only stored once in HIVO and the storage location of assets is the library. This means that when assets get uploaded, they are only stored in the library, and users can then create [Collections](/collections.md) of library assets, without duplicating the asset. Assets in the library can be modified or shared using [Library Actions](/library/library-actions.md), or be [downloaded](/assets/download-assets.md).
