(This post was originially in response to the "list thread.")
I have all my prep info in files under "general" and it's not doing me a bit of good. It's not easy to find things and certainly not portable.
Does anyone have binders set up and if so, can you share what tabs you set up for this?
THEN you have sub-dividers:
Food Storage (main tab)
Canning
Dehydrating
Dry storage
Pests
Medical (main)
Herbals
First Aid
Firearms (main)
Hunting (main)
Well, the list just goes on and on. If one were to keep all the tab making materials at hand, when you printed something out, you could just make tabs as you go. You wouldn't be apt to just "stick it in a book" - your system needs to be set up so it's easy to file right away. I imagine that it's going to depend on how you organize personally as to how you would set this up. But surely some general ideas would apply to all.
So how do you organize all your material?
