Description of document library - where does it show?
Hi! When I create a new document/picture library, there is a field for description with clear instructions: "Type descriptive text that will help site visitors use this library." ...
In classic UI it will show on hover over the document library title and on click of the small info icon ontop of the library. In modern it won't show up, but you should look at modern still as an early beta anyways. There are a ton of thinks not working in modern yet...
It's only you, the description is not displayed in the Document Library page and it happens i both modern and classic UI

- By now, 5 years later one could hope this was added as a very simple, very easy low hanging addition to Modern Document Library display. Yet, MS fails to deliver. Are they even following these threads...:-(
- I was able to find the description when I switched to Classic UI. It's nice to know that at least it used to exist in some visible form... Maybe there is hope that one day you can find that in the modern UI too.
Thank you all for your replies! - Modern libraries have been available for many months, small bugs like this should already have been fixed, but obviously they have not been (:
- You look old enough to know that Microsoft is not, never was, and (apparently) never will be a Truly-World-Class-Enterprise-Technology. Even Bill Gates knew to retire when the rest of Microsoft thought they could do something they obviously cannot. Another example: How in the (expletive) can they put something out there, expecting Fortune 500 companies to use it, that scrolls the column headers off the screen? ANSWER: They are apparently too stupid to know they are stupid.
