I understand the reasons for maintaining a fixed default for automatic organisation of PDFs into folders in Google Drive, but I find the current structure extremely unhelpful and difficult to navigate.
Each folder (representing the first letter of the first author’s surname) contains 100s of PDFs. Some authors (or different authors with the same surname) have 10s of papers listed. Often I do not remember the name of the first author of a paper I wish to read or annotate. I therefore struggle to find the paper I want.
I am far more likely to remember the journal in which the paper was published. Given that there are many more journals in my library than there are letters in the alphabet, each folder will contain a far more manageable number of papers.
I’d therefore very much like a journal-based file structure rather than an author-based structure.
Thanks!
