Appending Libraries

Hi there
I’m relatively new to Blender and am teaching it at the school where I teach. I am trying to find out about appending materials.

I have managed to append a material from a .blend find and then locate the material, but I have no idea how to actually use the material with my current file.

Help…!!

select the object u want to apply it to and goto materials and select that material that should do it

If you have appended correctly, it should be showing up as one of the material in pull down list.
