One thing I'm finding as my user count increases is, it's hard to see who has been shared to what libraries.&nbsp; I know I can go user by user to select the shares, but it would also be nice to see who has each library shared from within the library view.

&nbsp;

If I want to add someone to a specific library, they should already exist within my users group.&nbsp; If I want to restrict content from a specific rating/classification within the library I should be able to set this from within the library on a user by user basis.

&nbsp;

In this way, if I find someone streaming something I don't think they should have access to, I can go into the library and verify their permissions for said content.&nbsp; If I modify that permissions during playback it should drop the stream completely and force a new selection on the user's part.

&nbsp;

There are a lot of other things I would like to see regarding users and the whole interface we have for them.&nbsp; This is a good start to fix parts of the shortcomings, though.

Early 2021 clean-up: duplicate

>
> Currently, the only way to share a library is to edit users one at a time and select which libraries that user is able to see. But it seems like there are a lot of Plex users that have a large number of users, and I thought an alternative method of sharing would be helpful. Proposed: As an alternative to the existing method, the Admin should also be able to edit a Library and select from a list of users whom the Library is shared with. The UI could be similar to the existing UI for sharing - …
