Team Collections

Team Collections enable a team to collaborate on a single collection of books. Team members check books in and out as they work on them, and use the Dropbox file-sharing service to synchronize files between their computers.

Spreadsheet Import/Export

Spreadsheet export/import allows you to export the contents of a Bloom book to a specially formatted Excel spreadsheet, and import the content back into a Bloom book.
