Hi Guys,
Here we have some difference between Lists and Libraries in SharePoint
Lists | Libraries |
SharePoint lists are web based editable tables.It gives us the ability to work with structured data. | SharePoint libraries are a list of files. |
List is going to store the same sorts of data that you would normally place into a spreadsheet. | Library is used to store documents. |
A list contains items that are collections of fields/properties/columns.optionally can have one or more attachment. | A library is a list ,but have one and exactly one file associated with each item .A library item also has fields/properties/columns. |
SharePoint list doesnot support check in and check out options. | SharePoint Library supports check in and check out options. |
When the user searches for a keyword in a document , if the document is in a list then search returns the list item as the result. | When the user searches for a keyword in a document , if the document is in a library then they find the document listed in the search results. |
Example of SharePoint lists are Contact lists,Task lists etc. | Examples of DocumentLibraries are PictureLibrary,FormLibrary etc. |
