Step 4 - Create or Open a Library

Start the Author-it Administrator program, then create a new JET database or open an existing one. Read about when to use more than one library.
Note: If you open a JET Library database created with an earlier version of Author-it, it will be automatically upgraded to the latest version, and a backup named "Backup of Library name" will first be put in the same folder.
