# Using the Dual Library View

The Dual Library View allows you to open, view, and work with two separate clip libraries at the same time. With Dual View you can:

- Copy and move clips between libraries.
- Copy and move clips between local or remote projects while maintaining the project's structure.
- Copy clip libraries between workstations.

To display the Dual Library View:

1. Open a clip library.
2. Click the Library View Mode button located at the top-left portion of the screen.

   The Library menu now displays two Clip Librarie, in a Dual Library View.

When working in Dual Library View, you make a library active by clicking it. The active library is surrounded by a yellow box.

NoteWhen switching between views, the currently selected library remains active. For example, the active library in Dual View will appear when you switch to Single View.
