# How I Organize My Research Archive
## Introduction
As (acting as of 04/14/2021) CTO of an incredibly complex product/services portfolio, I have a large amount of research material. I am writing this note on how I organize it and make it fully available to the world without any overhead on my part.
Short version:
### Documents
This means PDF, print to PDF of web page, other file types (doc/xls/whatever)
1) Bookmark the link where'er is appropriate in my taxonomy.
2) Download the URI to ~/ResearchMaterial
3) calibre (on Raberry pi) is using ~/ResearchMaterial and that folder is synced via nextcloud to the corporate file server so I can also use Docear/Polar/Zotero on my x86 vm
### NOtes
I use this git repository (notes-public) with a folder of markdown files.
I primarily use VsCode on the ras pi todo note taking (and of course longer document creation)
Occasionally on mobile (iOS), I use Buffer and the WorkingCopy git client to make quick edits or capture something when I"m out
and get inspired.
I heavily use Working Copy on my iPad Mini 5th Generation to do code review, issue cleanup etc and I use Calibre to load up a long research paepr and read it over. I also may access the folder directly via samba if I want to annotate.

## More detailed version
### Taxonomy
I use a single taxonomy across:
* e-mail folders
* bookmarks
* home directory
* notes folder (this repository)
It is:
```console
ls
Board CEO CFO CIO CMO COO CTO dotfiles dotfiles-git landed notes-public personal PFVEMer
 ~/charles   15:03:47 
```
* Board
* CEO
* CFO
* CIO
* COO
* CMO
* CTO
I then have division names or project/product names under those folders.
More coming soon , still dialing things in.
