Narrative:

Approach chart error. Ord approach chart ILS or localizer runway 10 depicts the PAPI on the left side of runway 10. On the approach to runway 10 we broke out of the clouds approximately 1000 ft to find the PAPI on the right side of the runway. Checked the airport information page which correctly lists the PAPI as being located of the right side of the runway.
