I can't seem to locate a training note specifically on using the features of a Notes Document in Logos 7.  I can create it, but would like to see something more in depth on how to organize the entries within that document and the best way to build my Notes entries.  

Does anyone have a link that could be posted in response to this post?

Thank you!

    Hi Sharon (again :)

    You might want to scan these forums for usage cases.  There have been a lot of threads in the General and product specific forums on the topic of notes.

    The notes you make on mobile devices will be visible on your desktops and laptops and vice versa.  But the way to manage them is different between the two.  I actually prefer to take notes during reading sessions on my mobile devices since I have better control of which notes files will collect the notes.

    Pay attention to management of highlights via the palettes as well as notes.  You can move highlights and notes later, but it isn't easy to migrate a lot of notes from one file to another.  So it's easier to make sure that you place them reasonably in the first place.

    A lot of us default to keeping notes and highlights in resource specific files unless we are creating a notes file for a particular topic, subject, or class.  I tend to title my default notes files with the name of the author as well as the title of the resource.  That way I can easily find my notes later.

    BTW: There are many more people than Graham and I on this forum!  [:D]

    Sharon you won't find training videos on how to organise your notes and the best way to build your note entries - discussions on these forums will be the more useful for gleaning strategies on using notes, but I highlighly recommend you work through the training video Graham pointed out:

    but then I recommend you go onto the second part of that training and in addition you need to view the training videos on highlighting. From the perspective of the software Notes and Highlighting are both simply annotations 

    PS: Don't get concerned about the fact these were created for Logos 6, they will demonstate the basics of what you need to know to work with note taking in Logos 7.
