Hi Sridhar,

If the file type changes or you need to re-detect the metadata, you can
fix this via the "Edit information" link in the library item's drop-down
menu.

There's a search at the top level of the Data Libraries index which will
search the contents of Libraries.  You can set this up using the
instructions here:
