Even though I have my photos pretty well organized on my computer, I like to have stuff on a piece of paper I can scribble on. Whatever you call them, contact sheets can be a big help in keeping track of what photos to use in a life story or family history book/project. Have you ever thought how handy it would be to have a printout of itty-bitty pictures, with their filenames, of all the photos in a particular file? Photographers call them 'contact sheets ' the ones you get with your photo prints from Costco are called 'index prints.
