## The asset library

An image uploaded once can be reused in any experience you can reach,
rather than uploaded again each time — the same photograph in four
experiences costs four times the storage against your plan.

Every upload is filed at a sharing level: your own files, the
workspace's shared library, the whole organisation, or Panova's own
stock. See [Sharing assets with your
team](/support/articles/sharing-assets-with-your-team).

## Adding files

The button above the shelf names where a file will land — **Upload to
Workspace**, **Upload to Organisation**. Choose the library first, then
upload.

**You can choose several at once**, or drop a handful onto the panel.
They go up one after another rather than all together, and the dialog
counts through them — *Uploading 2 of 5*. Anything refused is left out
and the rest still land, so one bad file in a folder of ten does not
cost you the other nine.

A set arrives undescribed, because nobody has been asked what five
pictures show. Add the descriptions afterwards from the library.

## Stock images

Panova can search Pexels, Unsplash and Pixabay from inside the image
picker, Pexels, Pixabay and Coverr for video, and Freesound from inside
the audio picker. This uses **your own** provider key, added on
**Account → Integrations**, so the usage and the terms are yours. Keys
are stored encrypted and used only on your behalf.

A key is free from all five, but read what each one commits you to
first — a new Unsplash key is rate-limited until Unsplash approves it,
and that takes them about five working days. See [Connecting a stock
photo or sound provider](/support/articles/connecting-a-stock-provider).

## Storage

Storage counts against your plan. **Organisation → Usage** shows what
is being used and by which workspace.
