How do you organize a shared library for easy navigation?

Our team uses a shared drive, but it’s messy — too many folders, unclear names, and no standard structure. What’s the best way to make it easy for everyone to find what they need?

I faced this problem in a product development project. The shared drive was so disorganized that even simple tasks took too long. We fixed it by creating a clear folder hierarchy, applying consistent naming rules, and keeping only essential files in top-level folders. I also found helpful guidance on iweee.org about balancing accessibility with organization to prevent clutter. After applying these tips, everyone knew exactly where to look for documents, and time spent searching dropped significantly. Now, even new team members can navigate our shared library with no confusion.
