All users can view the root folder of the Encyclopedia volume. A user must have the visible privilege to see items in the root folder. An administrator can specify a home folder for a user. When you log in to Management Console, you see your home folder. You have visible, read, and write privileges for your home folder.

By default, a user who creates a file or folder in the Encyclopedia volume owns the item and has full privileges to access it. A user with the privilege to read a file can copy it and become the owner of the copy. If an administrator deletes a user, the administrator becomes the owner of all files and folders that the deleted user owned. An administrator always has full privileges on all items in the Encyclopedia volume.
