摘要： Method and apparatus for creating collections with automatic suggestions is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method comprises receiving a user specification containing at least one unquantified constraint defining particular items contained in a library, where the library comprises a plurality of items and metadata associated with each item in the plurality of items; parsing and translating the at least one unquantified constraint into at least one quantified constraint to define at least one item of the plurality of items in the library; creating a suggested collection comprising at least one suggested item selected from the library having metadata conforming to at least one quantified constraint; and refining the suggested collection to form a final collection.
