I know that this topic has been discussed before but since I don't see this as a feature in iPad/iPhone 2.0 I wanted to bring it back up. I would suggest adding "Collections" to the Library panel giving people the ability to browse subsections of their library. Another option is to allow searching based on "mytag" or "tag" in the searchbox. 

I have found that browsing collections sparks my memory of new resources, which is not meaningful for me to do by browsing through predefined resource types or a long list of resources. I have spent quite a bit of time utilizing the Collections in 4.5 Mac building queries of resources that meet my needs as a researcher. I have accomplished this by defining tags for resources and then building queries based on those tags. It really works great.

I noticed that Collections is implemented on the Search panel in iPad/iPhone 2.0. It would be wonderful to have the same filter in the Library panel.

Thanks,

Dave Schlup

    Hi Dave,

    I appreciate your input - I'll write up a suggestion case for our Development Department and forward it along.  Thanks!
