DESK INDEX

file IX-01 · filed September 2026 · standing

Every section file in the current edition, grouped by section band.

The desk publishes 10 section files across 7 section bands. Each file carries a code in its own band, a filing month and a status word: standing files are definitional and are expected to hold, while current files are written against this edition. The board on the front of the desk lists the same files in the same order.
