About the Resource Bin

The Resource Bin is a virtual file system for all streaming and downloadable resource files listed by a Content Owner. The Resource Bin is managed by a Site Administrator or a Content Owner.

In the Resource Bin you can upload new resources, view or edit information associated with existing resources, and view shared resource files. When you create a program, you are prompted to choose files from the Resource Bin. If your Resource Bin is empty, you cannot create a useful program.
