# How this index is arranged

[Index](https://internationalgamingawards.com/) › Help

Notes on the structure of the directory and on moving between its branches, results and records.

1. **How the tree is arranged**The index has five branches. Four of them - Award Categories, Judging and Criteria, Industry Sectors and Regions and Circuits - hold category results. The fifth, Terminology and Process, holds the glossary and the reference records.
2. **Category results and resource records**A category-results route lists entries as a title, a grey source label naming the branch, and one line of description. A resource record is a longer reference page opening with a table of label and value rows.
3. **Counts in parentheses**The number beside a branch link is the count of entries listed on that branch route. It is generated from the index itself, so it moves whenever the branch does.
4. **The alphabet strip**Letters above the tree and in the footer jump into the matching section of the A-Z index. A letter with no entry behind it is shown as plain text rather than as a link.
5. **Moving between routes**Every inner route opens with a breadcrumb back to the directory front, and every branch route ends with the list of sibling branches.
