Can you replace a placed CC Library Image in Illustrator

I am puzzled there doesn't seem in Illustrator ! a way, or at least an obvious way, to replace a placed image with another from a CC Library. I have a number of Adobe Stock images and would like to save time by duplicating first image and then replacing with different images rather than drag in each separately then resize/crop each one.

Select your image, then in the links panel menu or the control bar select Relink from CC Library (click on the image name in the control bar).

Once you select the image, press "relink" at the bottom of the Libraries panel.

Aaargh! How did I never notice the relink button appear in the libraries panel once relink selected in Links panel!

Thanks!
