Collections are a way to group videos together in Echo360
Collections can have none, one or many videos
Video management
Videos added to a collection are not copied into that collection. Instead they are added as a link. For this reason, if a user adds a video from their personal Echo360 library into a collection and then deletes that video from their library, the video also disappears from the collection. This also means that if this video is linked to from Canvas, access to the video via this Canvas link will no longer work
All the videos in a collection can be copied. This creates a separate softcopy file for each video in the collection: https://learn.echo360.com/hc/en-us/articles/360055448052

Collection membershipCurrently all users - including students - are allowed to create collections and each collection remains private to the user who created it until that user chooses to share the collection with others.You are thus able to access Echo360 content in any collection that you have created or to which you have been made a memberAs the owner (or ‘manager’) of a collection you control who has access to your collection and what they can do with it. You can make someone else a manager of your collection but once you do, you can’t undo this by yourself since managers can not remove or demote other managers. If you want to remove a collection manager, ask one of NIDA’s Echo360 admins for help
Collections have an option that allows whoever clicks on a link to be made a member of that collection
