Here are the notes from a lecture by Ed Reese in 1981.
Library and Files
Purpose - to be able to retrieve material, not store it.
The faster you file the longer it will take you to retrieve it.
Six filing categories:
1) Books
2) Booklets
3) Clippings - newspapers and periodicals
4) Other reference material
5) Periodicals - magazines (magni files are good for this)
6) Tracts - 4 X 6 or less with spiritual message
On your shelf you should have books, booklets, and periodicals
In your large file you should have clippings and other reference material
In your small file you have items 4 X 6 or smaller
Sub-divisions of the six
1) Personal items
2) Religious items
3) Secular

I liked Grady and I liked the subjects he taught. He was not exactly the best teacher, in fact kind of eccentric. I think ,like some of the other hac teachers ,they took themselves far too seriously. He used to come in class and somebody would always have a bottle of juice for him. He came in one day and there was no bottle of juice and had a hissy fit in a joking kind of way. The next day I brought a quart bottle of prune juice and set it next to all of the little other juice bottles. It was hilarious to see his reaction.

Yup. Committees are not comparable with Managawd-ism.
Dictators despise anything but total submission.
