Build Your Knowledge Library

Bring your most important company information together in Workplace


Centralize key company information and give employees personalized access to the resources they need with Knowledge Library. Knowledge Library allows you to build custom pages in Workplace to house information like HR benefits, travel policies, employee handbooks and more.

The best part is - it’s fully integrated with the rest of your Workplace, meaning it is searchable, shareable, interactive and free. There’s no coding required, so anyone can publish new content fast. And it’s optimized for both desktop and mobile, making important resources more accessible than ever. Consolidate your communication channels and centralize the collective knowledge of your business with Knowledge Library.


How to do it in Workplace

Getting started is simple. Any admin with permission to manage Knowledge Library can create and edit content. Contact your system admin for the ability to edit Knowledge Library. Learn more about admins roles in the Workplace Technical Resources.

 1. Customize your Knowledge Library Home

Knowledge Library Home is a customizable landing page that helps guide employees towards relevant content. Home is unique for each viewer based on the categories they have access to, but admins can highlight priority categories and key links that will be visible for everyone.

Admins can also select a cover photo, page title and subtitle for their organization’s Home page.


2. Create a category to get started

Click Create Category to start building your Knowledge Library. Choose from a template or start from scratch adding visuals, links, files and more. You can also create subcategories to dive deeper on important topics.

Categories and subcategories can be reordered to ensure your Knowledge Library is well organized.


3. Publish to the right audience

Once your categories are ready, click Publish to determine who can see them. You can determine access by department, job title or location, select a set of Groups or give access to everyone in your Workplace community. Once published, everyone with access to the content will receive a notification.


4. Keep content up to date and engaging

Knowledge Library should be the source of truth for key company information, so ensure you have a plan to update it regularly. And since it’s fully integrated in Workplace, it’s easy to search for and share resources in Group posts and to hear back from employees with reactions and comments. Editors will be notified when anyone reacts or comments on categories so they can respond quickly.
