When reading a book it is suggested that one take down notes to further synthesize the thoughts and lessons.
Some books are good to write in. Did this most notably while reading Personality Not Included.
Other books get a blank 3” x 5” index card that is used as a bookmark and to write out notes. This is a good method. It is best used for small nuggets of knowledge and short quotes. Long strings of text take up a lot of space.
The newest method employed for note taking while reading is a legal note pad. Currently I am writing down the page, one item per line. The goal is to make two columns per page. After reading the book with this method, I’ll probably type out the full notes and post to Evernote.
QUESTIONS
Do you take down notes as you read?
Notes after reading?
