# Selecting Clip Libraries in Local or Remote Projects

To make a clip library in a local or remote project accessible, select it in the network library. You can make local or remote clip libraries available for the current work session only, or each time you load the application.

To select a clip library in a local or remote project:

1. Display the Network Library menu.
2. Click Refresh.

   All accessible projects are searched for on local and remote framestores.

3. Expand entries as needed to see the available projects or clip libraries. To view all entries, click Select All, then Expand. Next, click Unselect All and make individual selections.

   All accessible remote clip libraries appear.

4. Select the clip libraries you want to access. The procedure for selecting entries is the same as that used in clip libraries. See Selecting Entries.

   Selected entries are light grey.

   TipSelect a framestore entry to access all libraries on the remote system; select a project entry to access all libraries in that project.
5. To automatically reconnect to a framestore, volume, project, or clip library when you restart the application, click the grey box to the left of the entry.

   The letters AC appear in the box, indicating the entry is set to be reconnected. All entries belonging to the entry are also set. When you restart the application and load the project, the specified entries are connected and the associated clip libraries are available in the Clip Library box.

   NoteA green AC indicates that the entry and all subentries are set for auto-connection; a yellow AC indicates that some but not all subentries are set for auto-connection.
6. If you want to stop automatically reconnecting to the clip libraries associated with an entry, click the grey box next to the entry again. To disconnect all entries set for auto-connection, click Reset Auto Connect.

   The AC indicator disappears.

7. Exit the Network Library menu.

   All the clip libraries you selected in the network library are listed in the Clip Library box along with the project's clip libraries. All clip libraries set for auto-connection will be available when you restart the application.
