Here are some notes I made from my quick search on this:
Alpha
-- a specific form of sequential?
-- alpha numeric?
Category
-- group sort
-- color
-- Dewey decimal
-- departmental/geographical location
-- segmentation/chunks
Order of Importance
-- numerical/steps
-- frequency of use
-- task list
Sequentially
-- time/timelines
-- logical progression
-- continuum
-- alpha/numerical?
I had trouble with these - harder to categorize:
Hierarchy / relational
-- mind-mapping
-- org charts
-- info diagrams?
Metaphors

When I see mind mapping and org charts, I think of it as a user created experience. You basically create a menu with all the options that link to the information, but the user can choose any option and learn the information in any order. - NicoleLegault110 years agoCommunity MemberThanks for looking into this further, Peter! Great comment. When we start thinking about it, there are so many ways to organize content.
