Description Column in Libraries
The Description column has recently appeared in all existing and new libraries in our tenant. A Description column is commonly used in Lists, but rarely in Document libraries. We do not see added value in this column and we are removing the column for all new and when we encounter in existing libraries. Why the push to our tenant ?

- Hi Laurie - thanks for the call out on this. I just now noticed this in our tenant as well. Frustrating when these things get pushed out with nothing in the message center - makes end users feel like they're crazy.
- Especially when it's creating extra work to clean up and remove it ...
- Microsoft release new features on a rolling basis and push them to every tenant, not just yours!
- Yes I get that and I've been through tickets with Microsoft on this and other issues. But it doesn't make any logical sense in a Library, a List, but not a Library and now we're stuck with extra work to clean up and remove it.
- Yeah, I see the column also...the interesting thing here is that the column is not part of the Document content type at the site level. It seems it has been added to every document library in a SPO tenant
