Identifying Personal vs. Shared Library Assets in Photos.framework

Can Photos.framework distinguish between assets that are stored in the user’s Personal Library and assets that are stored in the Shared Library?

If not, is there a planned API that would allow developers to identify the library membership of a PHAsset?

Unfortunately there's no API for this. If this would be useful for your app, please detail your use case in a feedback request.
