| Apart from several README files (this Wiki article is based on one of these READMEs), you will find one subdirectory for every 64-bit Slackware release below the toplevel directory "//multilib//". There is another directory called "source". The "//source//" directory contains package sources and SlackBuild scripts.\\ The stuff that you are really interested in - the binary packages - is available in the //<slackware_release_number>// directory below the toplevel directory.
