So setting up a new game. Long time Traveller GM, newbie FG user. If I wanted to add Library Data for my campaign that my players can always access, what would be the best way to do that?

If you mean within FG, then do them as story entries and then export into a player module that the players can load and view when joined to your campaign.

So probably best to have a separate campaign for Library Data type stuff that I can then just update and export for them each session?

Yep, have a module making campaign that you use just for that.

Thanks. Still getting used to the best way to do this stuff in FG. I kinda messed up my Numenera campaign by putting everything in my campaign.

For a Module Making campaign, can you just export bits as categories is that how it works? Or should I have a separate campaign for each module?

You can't export by categories - it's all of a record type, or manually drag each individual record to the export window - which will get annoying quickly. So best to have one module making campaign per module.

Thanks for the guidance.
