Our institution would like to see an Image Library tool inside each Bb course that allows the instructor to upload images relating to specific topics and sub-topics instructed in the course. Images would include diagrams, flowcharts, graphs and schematics (along with metadata - image titles and descriptions) that can be uploaded from the web and/or subscribed learning cartridges. The Image Library would archive and filter images by topics for easier reference at a later time in the course timeline. Available media streaming solutions predominantly focus on audio-video files and so an Image Library would tremendously benefit instructors and students.

I can see this as a big advantage, especially if the image library can be used as a tool for the students: the teacher could create a set of images from the uploaded ones and add them as content to the course so that students could browse them (like a photo album).

This could be a great feature as long as the Image Library would be an optional source when inserting/editing an image from the TinyMCE editor. I'd love to be able to view the images without having to click each individual image file's link before inserting an image into any content.

You mentioned being able to set up topics and subtopics in the Image Library, which got me thinking: It would be great if part of the Image Library feature is the ability to select "Image Library" from the Build Content menu and add single images or image galleries that can either be custom built in the moment or built automatically according to topics/subtopics that have been set up. I could see image-heavy or chart-heavy courses using such a feature.

You can already add an image from your course content collection.

Yes, but you cannot create a specialized image library for a specific learning module or unit
