### Adding a folder

Your site's Drop Box should contain a folder for each participant. You can add folders to the Drop Box or to an existing folder within the Drop Box. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Next to the Drop Box or existing folder, click `Add`.
2. On the Add Item(s) page, from the "Add Item Type" drop-down list, select `Empty folder`. Select the number of folders to create.
3. In the "Title" field, type the name of your new folder, and in the "Description" field, type a short description of the folder. If you're creating multiple folders, repeat this step for each of them.
4. Click `Add`.

Note: Site participants cannot see Drop Box folders belonging to other participants. Participants are able to see and access only their own Drop Box folders and subfolders.
