A tab system for a folder (10a), and a method of making same is disclosed. The tab is enlarged to carry more information/indicia. The visual indicia space (16a), i.e. the viewable space on the front (32a, 36a) of the folder which allows viewing of the enlarged tab is achieve without violating the overall size restrictions (40a) of the file folder. Instead, the front of the folder adjacent to the tab on the back panel, is cut away (32a,34a) to expose a greater portion of the back panel (14a) and allow an increase in visual indicia space. The remaining portion of the front panel, not adjacent to the tab may also be cut away (34a) to allow other enlarged tab files, with offset tabs,(22, 21a) to be viewable behind the present file.

A bound component has a front cover attached to a spine attached to a rear cover, a binding mechanism, and a binder extension attached to either cover. The binder extension folds inwardly in its closed position and has pockets. Also disclosed is a bound component having a front cover attached to a spine attached to a rear cover, a binding mechanism and one or more pockets attached to either cover. The pocket may have one or more closure flaps and may be expandable. Also disclosed is a folder having one or more bound edges and one or more free edges, one or more folder tabs extending from one or more free edges, and a plurality of pages bound to the folder. The pages may be bound to the folder using adhesive, string, staples or other attachment mechanisms. The folder may fit within a traditional file drawer.

A component including a body having an outer edge, a first slit/opening formed or pre-formed therein and a second slit/opening formed or pre-formed therein. The component further includes a tab coupled to the body such that the tab is movable between a retracted position wherein the tab does not protrude beyond the outer edge, and an extended position wherein the tab extends through the first slit/opening, extends through the second slit/opening and protrudes beyond the outer edge.

A storage device having a first member and a second member between which is a storage space. Adjacent the top of the first member there is an upwardly projecting integral portion of the first member which forms a first element of a label tag. The first element of the label tag is provided with an open window. Behind the window is a separate cover sheet, which is secured to the first element of the label tag so that a label can be inserted and retained behind the window. The cover sheet provides a writing surface facing the window and in the absence of a label this can be written by means of a writing implement which extends through the window. The writing surface may act as a whiteboard and may have enhanced dry erase performance, for example by having a glossy finish.
