    SharePoint, Libraries, and InfoPath forms

    I have been charged with setting up the SharePoint site for our department and we are all relatively new to using SharePoint, the organization has been testing and using it for a little over a year. Now I have been playing around with getting the libraries set up for each of our forms, however is it better to use the "Form Library" or just a standard "Document Library" when setting up and getting the completed InfoPath forms ready for use? I have played around with both and see only small somewhat immaterial differences as I can set the InfoPath form as the default content type in either case. Anyone have any tips or better knowledge on what the real difference is and what I SHOULD be doing? Or is it more to preference?

    Thanks in advance.

    Generally I use form libraries to hold the form submissions and to upload my form templates to.  Document libraries should be used primarily for all your other files.  It's best practice to keep them in two different libraries.
