Actually, the Library access is often limited to those items that would be appropriate. Some Examples:

If you insert a door in a wall and then select that door and the "Library" option from the Door dbx Chief will limit your selection to Doors.

If you select a Molding Polyline and the add a molding from Library your selectionwill be limited to 2D Molding Profiles and 3D Molding Symbols.

Most of the items in the Library are Symbols that are assigned a specific category and have specific behaviors. Once you have learned the basics of Chief you will recognize what items are appropriate and how to make your own Library Items to function as you want them to.

It's important to understand Chief's main components:

1. Rooms
2. Walls
3. Doors
4. Windows
5. Cabinets
6. Appliances
7. Fixtures (Interior and Exterior)
8. Moldings (2D Profiles and 3D Symbols)

There are many more but those are the main ones and once you've mastered how they work you will be able to make Chief sing. It's just a matter of learning the basics well.
