ABSTRACT:
The assembly of documents assembled by a team is simplified. Document sections are assigned to a team member from within a word-processing document. Once a document template is opened by a user, the different sections within the document may be assigned to team members. Once a section is assigned, a notification is sent to the team members indicating the assignment. The team member may access their assigned section(s) through the notification. The team member may also access a central location to edit the sections they have been assigned. Team members from within the document may also search and use content from one or more content libraries to assist in the document assembly. Newly created content may also be saved to a new and/or existing content library. The content is then available to other team members working on the same or different projects.
