Hi @Dan Smith,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

Regarding that you can't an asset library in a SharePoint site. To better assist you, I’d like to ask a few questions so we can understand your situation more clearly:

Do you want to create a centralized repository for your entire organization or just for a specific team/site?

Are you encountering any specific issues or errors while setting up the Asset Library?

When you say you "can't see it," could you clarify whether:

You can’t see the option to create an Asset Library?

Or you can’t access an Asset Library that has already been created?

Is the site you're working on a public site or a private site?

If possible, could you share a screenshot of the issue (with any sensitive information hidden)?

I'm sincerely sorry for the inconvenience that you've encountered. But I need to know more about your situation so I can help you better. I appreciate your patience and are here to help. Looking forward to your response
