1. To review a study in the eBinder, select the **Documents \> eBinder** tab, then select a study from the Study Selector in the upper-left corner.
2. The document folders on the left side of the screen provide easy navigation. 
  - **Hierarchical folder structure** is grouped by Document Type.
  - The **Document Inbox** folder contains documents waiting to be [classified](/gr/sitevault/eisf-ebinder/classify-in-ebinder/).
  - View documents of a specific type or related to a specific section of a study.
  - **Folder descriptions** of the expected contents are visible on hover or once a folder has been selected.
  - **Document indicators and counts** provide at-a-glance folder activity.

3. **Descriptions** are displayed for all folders and documents as they are selected.
4. In addition to selecting folders, filters are provided to assist in locating documents. 
  - The **eBinder Search** bar (located above eBinder table) is available to locate documents in the currently selected folder.
  - Use filters to locate documents related to a specific organization, participant, or person.

5. Documents are listed in the table on the right side of the screen. 
  - Selecting a document will open the Library view of the document in a new browser window.
  - The tabs along the top of the table provide views based on the documents’ approval statuses.
  - The **Document Actions** menu provides tasks (for example, change status, download, etc.) that are available based on document type and status. To review, select the ellipses menu (…) to the right of the Document Name.
  - A caret is displayed (\>) for documents with **previous versions** available to expand or collapse the view as needed. This viewing option is only available for documents to which the user has access.
