Download templates from the Public Library

Learn how to download Public Library templates via the web app and the mobile app.

What is the Public Library?

The Public Library is where SafetyCulture users from different industries can share the templates they've created with each other. With hundreds of thousands of free templates, you can use a template to start inspections immediately or edit them to make them your own.

We encourage customers to share templates they've created with the SafetyCulture community by uploading them to the Public Library.

Please note that if you want to have your templates available for download as PDF, you can upload the templates first in the Public Library.
