# View another user's library

When you are looking to find new [resources or playlists](/19/docs/totara-engage-content-types), you may want to browse other users’ [libraries](/19/docs/what-are-libraries).

To view another user’s library, follow these steps:

1. Go to another user’s profile by clicking their profile picture or name (e.g. on a discussion they’ve posted).
2. Click the **[****Name]’s library** link in the **Contributions** block.
3. Here you will see any public content items or items that have been shared with you.

By default the custom **Contributions** section will be added to the user profile. You can configure the **Contributions** category by navigating to *Quick-access menu > Users > User profile fields*. Here you can change the name of the category by clicking the cog icon (![](https://cdn.document360.io/a007399b-031e-436b-999a-528240e16f58/Images/Documentation/cog.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-06T06%3A55%3A24Z&se=2026-11-06T07%3A55%3A24Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=ZKtQAdGS%2Fk6MoSPZHUFlWwAoGtiDHlf9QbetLL39yZ8%3D)). This section will initially contain a single field called **User's contributions**. You can configure this field's settings by clicking the cog icon (![](https://cdn.document360.io/a007399b-031e-436b-999a-528240e16f58/Images/Documentation/cog.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-06T06%3A55%3A24Z&se=2026-11-06T07%3A55%3A24Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=ZKtQAdGS%2Fk6MoSPZHUFlWwAoGtiDHlf9QbetLL39yZ8%3D) ).

Note that using multitenancy on your site will affect which user-generated content users are able to access. See [Multitenancy in Totara Learn](/19/docs/multitenancy-in-totara-learn) for more information.
