BIM Server Libraries are libraries located on a server, but added to your project. You can add a BIM Server Library to any project, either solo or Teamwork (provided that you can access the BIM Server).
The advantage of using server libraries over linked libraries is that whenever a company library is updated and refreshed on the BIM Server, this library is updated for all users, both solo (after reloading the library) and Teamwork (after doing a Send and Receive).
In Teamwork, the BIM Server Libraries ensure that all users have access to libraries, even when they are working remotely over the internet.
To use a BIM Server Library in either a Teamwork project or a solo project,
•the library must first be uploaded to a BIM Server;
•and then it must be added to the project using ArchiCAD’s Library Manager.
