Lemma 26.7.7. Let X = \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(R) be an affine scheme. The direct sum of an arbitrary collection of quasi-coherent sheaves on X is quasi-coherent. The same holds for colimits.
Proof. Suppose \mathcal{F}_ i, i \in I is a collection of quasi-coherent sheaves on X. By Lemma 26.7.5 above we can write \mathcal{F}_ i = \widetilde{M_ i} for some R-module M_ i. Set M = \bigoplus M_ i. Consider the sheaf \widetilde{M}. For each standard open D(f) we have
\widetilde{M}(D(f)) = M_ f = \left(\bigoplus M_ i\right)_ f = \bigoplus M_{i, f}.
Hence we see that the quasi-coherent \mathcal{O}_ X-module \widetilde{M} is the direct sum of the sheaves \mathcal{F}_ i. A similar argument works for general colimits. \square
