Simple Instructions:

Save your work regularly by opening the "File" menu and choosing "Save". Saving a collection is not the same as making it ready for use in Greenstone (see Producing Your Collection).

The Librarian Interface protects your work by saving it whenever you exit the program or load another collection.

Advanced Instructions:

Saved collections are written to a file named for the collection and with file extension ".col", located in a folder of the same name within your Greenstone installation's "collect" folder.
