How to easily tell which file/asset is not being used in any compositions?

Is there a way in AE to easily tell which file/asset is not being used any of the compositions in a project? I'm making a slide show and I like to know which image has not been used in the current project's compositions so that I can use that image in another slide show project. It's a pain to go through each compositions/timeline and determine which image hasn't already been used and manually moved those images to another another project.

File --> Dependencies --> Collect Project. Check the options to only collect stuff actually used and then use the collected project or clean up based on the report and the other options available in this menu.
