Best way to organise my Films once finished

Hi Guys'

Thankfully I've been really busy with film work over the past six months and I'm still trying to work my way through half a dozen more edits, but as I add more and more into my Libraries etc, I'm increasing worried that my system is going to collapse (all running good at mo thankfully)
I have lots of finished films which have been supplied to clients, sitting in my Libraries/project/events section, so is there a tutorial out there that shows me how to successfully consolidate and remove these folders so myLibraries aren't looking so cluttered ?

Thanks for you help,

Neil

Apple says .....

pages 17ff is about 'archiving projects'

Thanks
I guess once all this is done I just delete file ?

Also - I guess It's wise to put all archived footage onto a separate hard drive from the hard drive where the original footage is kept ?

When the project and its according Events are archived, you can erase any 'other' files.

That is a wise strategy for any backups ... if optional, keep archive drives in a diff. room/house/continent ....

politically, or more in terms of earthquake, tsunami, impacts of space objects ...? :woohoo:

fun fact:
you can read a 500y old Gutenberg bible, but you can't read your floppy-disks from the late 80ies ...

and:
never have a talk with someone from a insurance company which insures insurance companies (that's an existing business model!) I once did, on some party ... those folks push 'paranoia' to a very new, aall time high level! e.g. Dubai is on a tectonic fissure as San Francisco ... now, imagine, you're in the Burj Kalifa and ... no, you shouldn't imagine that ..........
