What exactly is a picture library, and how do you make one in SharePoint?

Answer»

You can use the picture library to save and update images that you can use on your site or share with others. Picture libraries in SharePoint 2016 and 2013 are tailored for PHOTOGRAPHS, allowing you to sort by picture or file size, name, or latest EDITED date. You can also add columns for various types of information. You can see photographs as a list, thumbnails, or a slideshow in preset VIEWS, or you can design your own.
Following steps must be followed to CREATE a picture library in Microsoft SharePoint :

  • Go to the site where the picture library will be created.
  • Select Add an app from the Settings menu. If Add an app isn't listed in the drop-down menu, go to Site contents and then add an app.
  • Type Picture into the search bar on the Your Apps screen, or browse for and click the Picture Library link.
  • Click Advanced Options in the New dialogue box.
  • Type a name for the library in the Name box. The name of the library is required. The name appears at the top of the library PAGE, as part of the page's address, and in navigational elements that assist users in finding and opening the library.
  • You can optionally include a library description or enable versioning for the library.
  • Select Create. In the Quick Launch menu, the Picture Library's name appears under Recent.
