In order to organize your documentation, photo archive or music collection, it is recommended to create collections-catalogs. With their help, you will always know what collection elements you have and will be able to use them at the right time.
Necessary
- - folder for documents;
- - pen;
- - paper;
- - a stapler or paper clips.
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a handy document folder. If it is equipped with a binder, it will be more convenient for you to store your collection in it.
Step 2
Make a general list of your collection, point by point.
Step 3
Transfer each item on your preliminary list to a separate sheet of paper. Be sure to include all the information you know. If you need to make a collection of musical works, then you should indicate the names or pseudonyms of the performers, songwriters, full names of the composers who wrote the music. If these are music albums, then indicate their names and lists of songs included in them. Also note the years of release of albums or specific pieces of music. If we are talking about a book library, do not forget to indicate the author and title of each book, the year it was written by the author and published by the publisher. Be sure to describe the content of a fictional or documentary work. If you are working with photographs and strive to create a catalog of them, describe the people in the photo and details of where and when the photo was taken. Create a detailed description of the event reflected on it separately for each photo. This way, each item in your collection will have its own card.
Step 4
Set the order of the cards in the shared folder. You can arrange the elements of the collection alphabetically based on the names of the elements or the names of their creators. It is also convenient to arrange cards according to the date of creation of each of the elements, in ascending or descending order.
