And you know where every record is right? I sorta do & thankfully 
everything in my vast accumulation (about 30 thousand 78's, 45's, 
LP's plus a small number of 16 rpm discs & a few hundred 16" 
transcription discs) is categorized by type of music . alphabetical 
by artist & classical is alphabetical by composer. Of course the 
different speeds are separated meaning I don't intermix speeds. 78's 
are in one place, 45's in another, ect.  Which means I can find what 
I'm wishing to play without too much searching. But unlike you no 
archive (university or whatever) is asking for the collection after 
my death. In fact nobody wants it that I'm aware of.....
