# Structuring your clause library

There are three levels to Clause9 clause libraries:

* an **organisation-wide library** that is accessible to every user of the customer’s company / law firm, even if some users may not have editing rights
* a **group-based library** for, for example, different departments or cross-departmental practice groups that can only be seen and accessed by members of the group
* a **private library** that is only accessible to an individual user

Deciding how to structure your clause libraries and where to put your clauses is a strategy that will have to be decided at administrator-level. The following is a list of important questions that need to be asked at the outset in that regard:

* Is it your intention to make certain clauses available and **usable across the entire organisation**? Or will you be creating separate silos for different departments? (See also the [FAQ on the viability of such wide sharing](/clauses/clauses-faq.md#can-the-same-clause-be-used-throughout-my-organisation)).&#x20;
* Who will have the responsibility to vet clauses that enter the organisation-wide library or group-wide library?&#x20;
* Who will be given which access rights? Can everyone access and edit? Or are editing rights limited to a group of more experienced users?&#x20;

It is important to assign the proper roles to the right people so that the entire organisation is aligned on how to use Clause9.&#x20;
