Abstract: A combined information retrieval device comprises an elongated strip of material. A coating of an adhesive is applied to one surface of the strip. Holes are formed along the edges of the strip which are sized and spaced apart so they can be interlocked with the rings of the binder of a loose leaf notebook to identify and conveniently locate a page containing information that must be dealt with. Status indicting devices, in the form of loops which can be interlocked together, are interlocked with a hole in the strip. The adhesive holds the strip in position on a page in the binder to indicate both a page and a line on the page containing information that must be dealt with. The number of loops attached to the strip indicate the operations that have been completed and the next operation required.
