Book folder set-up on Google Drive

For production editors / DTP

It is important to use a consistent way of naming folders/files for archive to be able to find them again for sourcing, re-use or correction purposes.


Standard books

This is the book folder structure DK is currently using on Google Drive for all standard books.

Work reference/book code

  • This will be the 6 digit work reference from Biblio 3.
  • For the US edition, books with common colour will be archived under the 6 digit ‘UK’ work reference.
  • If the book has a separate US work reference, include this on the ‘notes for archive’ section of the archive form.

Non co-printable files

If files are not co-printable then this will need to be noted on the archive form.

For shrink down or IPL editions, the PDFs should be easily identifiable as being different from the master – either with the edition version number or with a suitable tag (e.g. IPL). IPL customers will need to be able to see clearly all pages are there in page order.
