I have to give all members of my SharePoint site edit permission in order to for them to have access and edit files and documents in the sites shared documents library. This means any member can edit the actual SharePoint site itself, which is far from a best practice. I think the workaround is to create a separate SharePoint library and then link it to my site, so visitors cannot edit it but have access to and edit documents in another site. Is this a good workaround or does anyone have a better idea to address this issue?

Hi, I have been tasked with redesigning an existing SharePoint site with an existing library that I am now an owner of. Unfortunately, the option to break permissions tool or to create separate permissions has been deprecated by Microsoft. Once a library is created, its permissions at the time of creation are locked now in. That said, what I really need is a good, scalable web driven document management system that can easily be modified that doesn't require heavy IT support. (I am not an IT person). Any recommendations?
