This table explains where particular resources are to be found,
by reference to their "Media" value, in the sixth column ("F") of the Index.

¢ $

  Resources are filed depending on the media on which they reside, not their subject matter, as far as practicable in alpha order of Reference-ID.
Maps  that are flat are all in the map-chest, others are on a wide variety of media, including some just as digital resources.  
Photos  can be any variant of book / booklet / paper, as card❋ or digital.  Photo Deposit images are indexed by community, almost always in summary.
(❋) and (¥) in the table below are usually optional annotations: see notes at the foot of the table  
Drawers  are numbered top to bottom in the four-drawer filing-cabinet (1 to 4), then the three-drawer cabinet (5 to 7).
