== Essential features ==
=== Primary data structures ===
User data is stored in Memento in Fields within a Library. See [[Terminology]] to see how this relates to other database technologies and tools. A collection of libraries is called a Group. A collection of fields within a Library structure is called a Page. When data is entered into fields, an Entry is created, so while a library's structure is made up of fields, the library itself is made up of entries.
