# Creating, Editing, & Deleting Collections

Collections in Asset Panda organize your assets, linking people, locations, and categories to create meaningful connections across your resources. You can create, rename, or delete custom collections to keep your data structured, while [default collections](/setting-up-the-organization/collections.md) remain protected from deletion. You can add custom fields to existing collections, create new collections, and link them to others to establish new connections. Asset Panda imposes no limit on the number of collections that you create within a module.
