Abstract

Take a moment and picture your work area. Chances are, somewhere there is a filing cabinet. It might be black or green, tall or short, or a drawer in your desk. It might house files about collections, artificial or clippings collections, maps or oversized materials, or your personal work records. You may access it daily, monthly, or rarely. Regardless of its function, it is part of the physical space and atmosphere that induces images of organization and safekeeping. Keep those images in mind; reading this book will change how you look at and think about filing cabinets.
