Edmodo Library
Leveraging the power of the Web, the Edmodo Library allows teachers to store and manage uploaded documents in a wide range of
file formats, with the ability to access and edit them anywhere, anytime. A personalized database linked from the very top of the
member’s home page, the Library also allows teachers and students to easily share and discover files with peers. From the Library,
teachers and students can:
 Search for documents by name using the search bar at the top of the library.
 Add files (100MB maximum per each) and links to the Library.
Accessing Folders
Adding Media to Your Library
To help us stay organized, folders have been created for the
various resources in the library.
1. Click the Library link at the top of the page.
2. On the upper right hand side of the page, you will see an Add
to Library button. Click it.
You can access the Folders in a couple of ways. The easiest way
to access the folders are on the group home page. The folders
are in the lower-right corner of the page.
3. The Add to Library dialog box appears. You can add files
and/or links to the library.
You can also go to your library and select the Shared with Me
folders to access your shared folders.
4. Once you have added a file or link, click Add to Library
button.
Searching in the Library
After using Edmodo for a short period of time, your Edmodo library will grow and finding the file or link that you need may become
difficult. Never fear…… Edmodo has a search box specifically for the library.
1. Make sure you are in the Library. (A Library link always appears at the top of the webpage.)
2. The Search box is located at the top of the webpage. Type in the key word of the
information that you need to find. Files and links with that key word will be filtered out from your library to make finding the file
or link easier.
3. Another way to search for information in the library that was shared through a post is to click the
Attached to Posts link in the upper left corner in the Library.
4. The final way to search in the Library is for posts Sent by Me. All files or links shared by you will
appear in the library. You can conduct a narrowed search on just these items.
