How to create a collection

If you do research on several topics, Statista lets you organize Favorites into folders. A Collection in this case refers to the superordinate level. Each Collection can contain multiple Chapters. Click on the Create new collection button in your account’s Favorites section.



A dialog box will then appear, into which you can enter the name of your new collection. Confirm by clicking OK.



The Collection will then be created and selected. A Chapter will directly be created for you to structure your research.



On the right hand side of the page you can see the contents of the Collection.

Rename collection

Add statistics to Collections and Chapters

There are two ways to add statistics to a collection: when saving the statistic or in the Favorites management section. There you can also move it into a subordinate chapter.

Option 1: You can open a menu by clicking on the arrow to the right of the Favorites star icon. Here you can directly save it to the right collection. In case the collection includes multiple chapters then the statistic will be moved to the uppermost chapter.



Option 2: In the Favorites management section: Click on the gear wheel next to the statistic



A dialog box will open, which lets you select one or multiple chapters in which the statistic will be saved. You can also select the individual chapters
