Graphic charts present unusually comprehensive data in condensed form for analysis and interpretation. Major libraries should contain a division of graphic charts. Filing most of the material could be easily done by placing material in the usual letter vertical files. Provision should, of course, be made for cross references. Probably it would be desirable to have two sections, one for scientific and technical data, the other to contain all other material. To aid those studying graphic presentations, larger libraries would do well to have a separate file classified according to types of graphic charts, irrespective of the subject matter.
