How this library is organised

Fonts are grouped by the classification system explained in types of fonts: three families of serif stress and contrast, three kinds of sans serif, plus slab, glyphic, monospace, script and display. Knowing the class is the fastest route to a substitute: if the font you identified is a geometric sans, any geometric here will feel related.
