At home, in a server environment on Windows 10, it is not possible to add several multimedia folders as sources to create a library. Is it a bug or a problem of use on my part? In any case, it is very, very annoying. ---

Yes, it is possible. Just “Add [another] Folder” when editing your library.

You cannot add individual series to a “TV Shows” library. You must always add the “parent” folder which holds all the shows. [https://support.plex.tv/articles/naming-and-organizing-your-tv-show-files/](https://support.plex.tv/articles/naming-and-organizing-your-tv-show-files/) ---

Thank you for your reactivity! I’m looking into it. I’m a bit new to PLEX and I regret the lack of a proper tutorial. Indexing, if you want to do itb properly is a complex matter. ---
