I think you can search for the subject "vertical files" and find
some information. Also try "clipping files".

>      The "picture files" I refer to might require some degree of definition,
> because in your own library you may refer to them by a different name. The
> picture files at my library are simply photos and/or drawings of various
> subjects that are cut out from old magazines (those magazines which are
> slated for discard or are not part of the collection, that is!), placed
> in file folders, labeled, and made available to the students at a group
> of file cabinets. They are in high demand at this library, because art
> students are always looking for pictures they can use in order to practice
> their drawing or to fulfill academic assignments.
>      As I have worked at keeping this file organized, a number of issues
> have come up. Collection development: What pictures are most appropriate?
> Cataloging: Which headings are best, and what type of sub-headings should
> there be? Circulation: What is the most efficient way to circulate the
> pictures and ensure their return (Currently we use a system of placing the
> picture in bar-coded folders that are circulated just like books, which
> works ok but might not be the best method.)
>      In doing a search of the library literature on this subject, I
> have not found much that so far addresses the management of picture
> files. What I would appreciate, then, is one or both of the following:
>      1) Some references in the art or library literature that deal with
> the topic of picture files.
>      2) Personal experience and advice about how you manage your own
> picture file collection.
