"Organization is everywhere! It is a part of our lives, employed in formal information environments

such as libraries and archives, but also in our everyday mundane interactions with the world

around us. Kitchens are organized so that cooking equipment is easily accessible, and foodstuffs

and spices can be used as needed. Grocery stores are organized to bring like items together (and,

more so, to maximize profits). Items in a newspaper, either digital or on newsprint, are organized

into specific sections so that similar stories are presented together, which results in a separation of

unlike items....Organization is a very important part of everyday

life; it is key for efficiency, progress, and even survival!"

-- Joudrey, "Chapter 1: Organization of Recorded Information", p. 1.
