The Admin Tool search allows admins to see relevant details for each search result. You can quickly see the Media Library title, number of assets in the library, sharing settings, whether Contribution and Visibility are turned on, and the date the Media Library was created.

If you click on the title of a Media Library, the Media Library will open, so that you can see its contents (Fig. 3).
