Using libraries from earlier versions of Premiere


    In previous versions of Premiere, you could create containers called libraries, which were used to store clips from one or several projects. A library was stored as a separate file apart from any project. Although Premiere 6.0 doesn't directly support libraries, you can open a library. The library is converted into a bin when you open it in a Premiere 6.0 project. If you want to store a set of clips so that they are available for other projects, simply save the bin that contains the clips. See Using the Project window's bin view.

To import a library:

  1. Choose File > Open.
  2. Locate and select the library (.PLB) file, and then click Open.
