Mary,
Thanks for posting your filing system - it is a good one.
As to using photo corners for mounting small documents
onto paper, have you tried "glue dots" made by Herma
company. "Dotto" is printed on the front of the small carton.
A roll will fit in a small dispenser holding forty nine feet of
tape and is so quick to roll some on the back of documents
or pictures. Says it is acid free and safe for archiving. Comes
in two types, permanent and removable. I use the removable.
One or two short strokes on the paper is enough to hold the
document in in the plastic sleeve. I like to put the dots
on the two lower corners of the documents or pictures as
it makes them easier for slipping into the plastic sleeves.
Thanks again,
Nan

Thank you, Geoff!
After I sent it to you, a number of people asked for it personally. A
few followed up with additional questions pertaining how I file
obituaries and photos. Here was my reply -
I haven't organized obituaries, prayer cards or obituaries yet.
For obituaries, I will keep them all together in 1 file folder and
number them as OBIT 001, OBIT 002, etc. I'm going to mount them
individually on archival safe paper using photo corners. If they are so
small that it's better to put multiple ones on the same sheet of paper,
then I'll number the folder as OBIT 001 but each obituary will lettered
'A', 'B', etc. Therefore, the FILE ID will be OBIT 001A, OBIT 001B.
