Create a collection

You can create a collection in just a few clicks.

Notes:

  • You must have a Destiny user account. Guests cannot create a collection.
  • You cannot create a collection from the PUBLIC tab.
  1. From the Collections homepage, select PRIVATE > Create Collection +.

    Collections page with Private tab and Create Collection option highlighted.

    A pop-up appears.

    Create a new collection pop-up.

  2. On the TITLE/DESCRIPTION tab, do the following:
    • Enter a title for this collection. The title appears on the Collections homepage and when you open the collection.
    • Enter a description for this collection (optional). The description appears only when you open the collection.
    • Select a visibility for this collection. The default visibility is Private, but you can make the collection available to others in your school or district, or anyone you choose.

      Notes:

      • Some of the visibility options might not be available to you, depending on your role.
      • If you select Your School, only people at your school can see your collection.
      • If you select District, only people in your school district can see your collection.
      • If you select Public and you are not a student, anyone can see your collection.
      • If you select Public and you are a student, anyone can see your collection except guests and anonymous users.
      • Visibility is based on the viewer's location. A shared collection created by someone at your school appears on your school carousel. A shared collection created by someone in your district, but not your school, appears on your district carousel.

  3. After you add a title, description, and visibility, do any of the following:
    • If you are done entering collection details, click Create Collection.
    • If you want to add grade and subject information, click the GRADE/SUBJECT tab, and then make your selections.
    • If you want to add an image and color, click the IMAGE/COLOR tab, and then make your selections.

      • To customize the collection image, scroll to select a stock image, or click UPLOAD IMAGE to add your own.

        Notes:

        • To resize the image, move the scroll bar left or right until the image fits in the window.
        • To delete the image, click REMOVE IMAGE.

      • To choose a color for your collection, click the desired swatch.

Note: You can click Create Collection at any time. Once you create a collection, you can add resources to it.
