Ordering your archive or collection means giving it a logical structure. To organise your archive properly, you need to classify the documents, items and series in accordance with a pre-defined system, taking the type, content and context of your documents into account. You can achieve a logical structure in analogue form using folders or archive boxes in cabinets and on shelves. In digital form, you can use a folder structure.
