In the second half of 2023, the 2U>Teaching & Learning squad (T&L) will finally be completing the multi-year BD-14 project by rolling out a new Content Library authoring experience (aka “V2”) to edx.org Studio Users. Primarily, this means: rolling out the library-authoring MFE, and migrating Modulestore-backed “V1” libraries to Blockstore. Our work will be the culmination of a long series of projects that will enable these features.
T&L will offer as much of this effort as possible back to the community in the following ways:
Include the updated Library Authoring MFE with the Quince release which will work with V2 libraries, OFF by default
Include a set of management commands with the Quince release which will provide a path to migrate existing Content Libraries from modulestore to blockstore.

Pertinent Studio Page usage metrics, e.g. “How many users visited Library pages today? Where are they located? How long was their session?”
The most pertinent performance metric is likely User-centric page load times from New Relic. Our goal will be to maintain a consistent experience to the current legacy Studio baseline.
“Happiness”-style qualitative user feedback obtained via beta testing, interviews, and surveys. If our power users are unhappy with the experience, T&L may choose to delay or partially roll out these changes.
Community Considerations
This work will be done primarily in an openedx repo, and we will heavily document the steps that any our instance will need to follow in order to fully follows to convert to Library Authoring Experience v2 in the openedx wiki. T&L expects these will become available to community members starting with Quince. T&L will need to update both developer and user documentation as part of this project.
