Groups let you organize references without creating multiple libraries. A reference can be in several groups, and removing it from a group does not delete it from your library.
-
Custom Groups: add references manually.
-
Group Sets: organize several groups together.
-
Smart Groups: automatically add references that meet specific criteria.
All groups appear on the left under My Groups.
