ABSTRACT
Objective: "Classic" articles remain an important resource in teaching psychiatry. But, such materials are often buried in a faculty members filing cabinet, effectively lost in todays world of instant access. We attempt to recover these materials through a marriage of traditional reading lists and contemporary technology. Method: The authors created a sharable electronic filing cabinet to store frequently used teaching materials. Conclusion: An electronic filing cabinet can organize teaching materials and increase efficiency in teaching.
