Which of the following is indexed by the name found on its letterhead?

• A. college
• B. bank
• C. hotel
• D. All of the above

Answer: (D)

When organizing records, the official name shown on an organization’s letterhead is used as the primary indexing entry. The letterhead reflects the sanctioned corporate name, and using that name as the access point ensures consistent retrieval across all related records. A college, a bank, and a hotel each publish their formal name on letterhead, which becomes the standard term for cataloging and filing. Relying on this official name helps avoid confusion from abbreviations, branding differences, or name changes, and it provides a single, authoritative anchor for all records tied to that entity. Because every one of these types uses its letterhead name as the recognized reference, all of them are indexed by that name.
