<p>Reference index cards are arranged alphabetically. They can be accessed rapidly and independently according to a two or three decimal numerical classification. The cards are stored in a magazine and they can pivot by rocking action about an axis (3) and are removed vertically from the file once they have been separated during this operation by a retaining arm (11).
