Archive Your Libraries: To make room for new students next year, archive your current libraries. This moves them out of your active "Private" or "Shared" slots while preserving the books for future viewing.

Pro-Tip: Archiving is not the same as deleting! Your books are safely tucked away in the "Archived" tab of your library view. You can restore them at any time if you decide to use a specific book as an exemplar for next year's class.

-Be specific and clear when writing your prompt.
