Add ability to to add a tag to multiple open resources at one time

Just searched my Library and open all of my resources related to money, debt, finances, tithing, etc.
Now that I have them all open, I would love the ability to add a TAG to ALL of them at one time. For example, I want to add the tag "Finances" to all of them, but do not want to click on each resource individually (about 20 resources) to do so, as, obviously, this would take a few minutes to do so.
Is there a way to tag multiple open resources with the same tag? Of could this be considered for implementation?
I know I can add a tag to multiple selected item in the Library list, but I would like to be able to do so with OPEN RESOURCES, as I don't know a way to get JUST my open resources to show in the Library list to add tags from there.
Thanks all!

I am not aware of a way of tagging all open resources, but if you can define what you want in the Library view, you can achieve what you're trying to do another way.
- Enter the search in the Library search bar. (title:money or whatever)
- Click the "i" button on the right-hand side of the Library view.
- Select all the resources in the library view (I find cmd+click on a Mac works best) but don't click on the title.
- Add the tags on the right-hand side of the view. and press enter.

Thanks Greg. I appreciate the feedback. I mentioned this option in my OP.:

...I was just hoping there was a way to do it from Open Resources because there is no way to gather just my Open Resources and ONLY those resources in the Library list to achieve the method you mentioned.
Thanks again for the feedback and the quick response time, though, brother.

Well, it's a multi-step process, but it can be done.
- Open a new Bibliography document. From the Add menu, select "...all open resources" to add them to the bibliography, and name the document something useful.
- Then from the Bibliography document's menu, select Save as Collection.
- Then go to the Library window. Filter it by the new collection you just created.
- Select all resources shown (click in the resource listing, and then hit Ctrl+A (Windows) or Cmd+A (M).
- Open the info pane and add your tags.
Still it would be nice if there was an automatic collection called "Open Resources".

Todd,
Thanks brother! Im embarrassed...now that you have written this, I remembered that I have done this several times before. I just seemed to have been having a lapse in brain function. LOL
Thanks for taking the time to write this. Hopefully I will remember going forward!
Im sure this will be a good teaching tool /post for others, as well.
God bless!
