Media Files and Viewing Options

When selecting files to be added to Clooz records in the Media
A digital file containing an image, text, spreadsheet, video, audio, or any other format. These can be attached to various records in Clooz as digital representations of source document content, or as Information Records (as photographs, maps, videos, or audio independent of a specific source document). Panel of applicable editors (Select New File button), an alternate tool will be used which identifies whether files are already linked to Clooz records.
