# Source migration
::: tip
This is useful when the source you are using is taken down or there are no plans to fix it, but it exists on other sources.
Migration is the process of moving manga from one source to another while keeping your current progress and data. This is used often when a source is no longer accessible or you want to move it off one source to another for a myriad of reasons.
::: guide
1. Go to **[<MaterialIcon icon-name="class"/> My library](/help/guides/my-library)**, open the **<MaterialIcon icon-name="more_vert"/> Overflow menu**, and then tap **<MaterialIcon icon-name="compare_arrows"/> Source migration**.
1. Select the **Source** you're migrating from.
1. Find and select the title that you want to migrate.
**Tachiyomi** will do a global search of all the sources you have installed and enabled. If you don't find the manga you want, try searching for other titles it might go under.
1. Once you find the manga you want to migrate, select it and then choose which data you want to transfer over, and you're done.
:::
Source migration transfers all the data (Chapters, Categories and Tracking) from a bookmarked manga over to the another source.
1. Go to the top right corner of the library and press the triple dots (`⋮`), and tap `Source migration`.
1. Scroll down to the source you're transferring from and tap `SELECT`.
1. Scroll down to the title you're transferring and tap that. Tachiyomi will do a global search of all the sources you have installed and enabled. Change the search query if you're not able to find the manga you want.
1. Once you find the manga you want, you just tap it, check the parts of the manga data you want to transfer over, and you're done.
::: warning
Make sure you have a **[backup](/help/guides/backup/)**, if anything goes wrong.
