 if you want to "steal" control of it.  Never steal a collection that someone
 else is currently working on.

+Collections built by the Greenstone Librarian Interface program are slightly different to those built outside this program. When you open a collection in the Librarian Interface that was not created by it, there will be a few extra steps to go through. First, you will be asked to select a metadata set to use for your collection. You can choose more than one, and you can add others later. If you don't select any, any existing metadata for the collection will be ignored. If one or more sets are selected, any existing metadata will be imported into the collection. As the operation proceeds, you may be prompted (perhaps several times) for extra
+information to match the imported metadata to the metadata sets in your
+collection.  This process involves many different prompts, described in the <a href="importingpreviouslyassignedmetadata.htm#importingpreviouslyassignedmetadata">Importing Previously Assigned Metadata</a> section.
