Summary

The lists and libraries functionality provided by SharePoint is an extensible platform for storing and sharing information. In this chapter, we covered how to implement lists and libraries, both through using the templates provided by SharePoint and by creating custom lists. We then customized these lists and libraries by configuring their settings and adding custom columns. In addition, we reviewed the functionality provided by views to filter, sort, group by and otherwise tailor the presentation of list and library information to meet your specific audience(s) requirements. Finally, we used list and library Web Parts to show list and library information in context with and/or connected to related information on a Web Part page.
