To create a new library click the New Library button.
To open existing spectral library click the Open Library button and choose your desired library.
Adding a spectrum into the library is done by clicking the Add Spectrum button which opens Spectrum Property. In the dialog you can specify compound name and additional comment.
To add all identified peaks in the chromatogram at once, click the command from the menu Spectrum - Add All Identified Peaks.

Note:

Identified peaks are those that correspond to peaks identified and named in the calibration file. Peaks are added into the currently opened library.

If you have made any changes in the library and you want to keep them, click the Save Library button.
To close a library use the Close Library button. If you have unsaved changes you will be prompted to either save the changes or discard them.
