Description of the bug
When given the 'Manage collections' permission, users are able to create a collection without having access to the 'Collections' library. As a result, the confusing situation arises where you can create and add items to a collection, but not view or edit it after moving away from the initial creation view. The dropdown in the 'add to collection' modal only ever showed 'New...'.
Suggestions:
Reproduction steps
What is the current bug behavior?
The user is only given the ability to create a new collection. If they enter the same collection name twice, it will show with any prior changes.
The collections library now exists if it did not previously, and the user does not have access to the collection they have made.
Trying to add another piece of content will still only show the 'New...' option in the 'add to collection' modal.
What is the expected correct behavior?
The user has access to the collection that was created

I see this issue was closed for inactivity a long time ago, but the problem still exists and I just spend several hours pulling my hair out before I found this bug report. This is very confusing since you can perform many collection-related operations that appear to just have no effect whatsoever until you make this library available. If this information is covered in any documentation they I cannot find it. There are a lot of posts in various places but this appears to be the only place where we are told to enable the collections library.
