The actual slides or negatives are located in hanging slide pages in lateral file cabinets. I'm working on getting them all scanned and burned to DVDs. Digital files are filed by country, subject, and date in the same format. Digital files are stored in an external hard drive until each category contains enough files to fill a DVD. Then I burn them to two DVDs which I store in different locations. I use Portfolio, too, with catalogues for each country/subject category. This system works great for instantly locating anything that is requested by my stock agencies.
