It would be nice to have a place to go and see your DnD Beyond Library. I know I can go to My Account and look at purchases. But under Collections, it would be nice if there was a section for My Sources or Library. So you can easily find all your source books that you have purchased on DnD Beyond.
A separate page for the items you have purchased would be good, sortable by item type. Otherwise, right now its all shown in your Account/Marketplace page down under Current Product Licenses. However if you have bought it as a bundle item, such as Sourcebook Bundle, anything that came out after that wont be in there.
Issue is, the License part isnt dated to when you made that purchase and you would have to go and look in the receipt/order section above for when that was. Maybe getting that in the License section, or listing them in the order of purchase, oldest on the bottom, newest on the top, since right now there isnt any such order to it.
Adding a request for this as well. I usually like to reconcile what I have physically with what I have here.... looking at my account/marketplace page.. it is tough to figure out what I don't have. This means missing dollars for Dndbeyond because I would purchase those missing books right now.
Specifically.. a library like display of all the books I have versus the ones I don't so I can get them and not purchse items in the middle of gameplay.
Agree with this suggestion. I find it hard looking at the account/marketplace section to see what books I have and what I don't have.
I think having in either this page https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources#Sourcebooks or in the dropdown menu for sources a way to tell you own them. Maybe in the dropdown a simple symbol to say you own it. In the sourcebooks page have each icon have a flag like "in library". Also in the same page could also flag if you have access to a book via campaign content sharing "shared" (could use a better word).
The iOS app has a Library tab which clearly shows which books you own. You'd think adding this feature to the web app would be a complete no-brainer. But still no dice, two years later :/

You used to be able to filter out items you already own when looking at the marketplace. I really miss that feature.
Similarly, I'd love to be able to sort or catalog my library. Now especially, to be able to archive old 2014 content I may not want cluttering up my list. Such as the 2014 PHB, DMG, etc.
My agreement/request... please add under <user_name> (where I find campaigns and characters) a link to "Library", that displays the links of purchased source material.
In fact, if you just click on the "All Sources" link it will display a list of all sources and on each source, in a blue box with white letters, will bee the words "In Library" for the things you own. Thus, you can see both the things you own (the ones with the white/blue text) and the things you don't own.
By putting "library" in the search box on the Sources page and searching, you can filter it down and show only the things you own.
I'd love to see what's in my :Content Library" also. I don't understand why I have access to monsters in the Encounters Creator but then when I try to add some to the actual map, it says I don't have access to them. It's as if there are multiple tiers of access, which is totally whackadoodle to me.

You can.

The amusing thing is there's no way to slim the list down to things I haven't bought yet, like "notlibrary". I can look for the gaps in blue but with others sharing with me, some of the blue isn't mine.
Actually, that brings to mind an idea that I think might be useful:
Just like the blue stripe with white lettering to indicate things in your library, how about, say, a red stripe with the appropriate colored lettering that indicates what's being shared with you? I know that you can be in multiple campaigns with multiple characters so it might not be incredibly useful, but at least it would show what content you have access to and what you don't.
Maybe something the devs can think about and maybe come up with a better idea...
The main problem with DNDB now is the accessibility to what I own! It doesn't feel intuitive and it's very annoying needing to go through everything to see what I want to read more about.
It's also annoying going through the marketplace to clearly see most of what I own, instead of showing me only things I don't want. This would make it easier to shop, and I would definitely be more open and willing to buy more! It's just not rewarding buying things on DND beyond due to the accessibility of it.

How is this not a thing yet? Even just a quick filter on the sources page would be fine to be able to filter "Owned", "Not Owned", and "All"...
This something that actively annoys me every time I use the website...

On the website, this text appears at the top of the search in Sources, and highlights only items that are in your library.
In fact, if you just click on the "All Sources" link it will display a list of all sources and on each source, in a blue box with white letters, will bee the words "In Library" for the things you own. Thus, you can see both the things you own (the ones with the white/blue text) and the things you don't own.

It,s like when customers ask for something wizbro thinks long and hard about the most inconvenient way to give us what we ask for 🤔🙄

Encounters supports content sharing; Maps doesn't.
If your first thought is "that makes no sense", well, you're right, it doesn't. But it's what we have to work with.

There's already other text saying "Shared with you" but it's also blue.
That appears on the mobile app, but not on the website (i.e. here) where it would definitely be a welcome addition.

I came here to say this, and add my opinion here.
