Try to organize your files in a way the makes sense to you or your group.

Some options are:

• Project Title
• Date
• Location
• Volume and/or Issue Number
• Course Number
• Module

Create a Template

Creating a template for your folders (Example: Every "Projects" folder has the same subfolders)

How specific does it need to be?

This all depends on the amount of files in the folder. You should not need more than 3-4 levels of folders.

Do not hesitate to start over or reorganize as a folder grows!
