Workshops @ Your Library – PowerNotes: Organize and Write While You Research

Date: Thursday, September 9, 2021
Time: 1:00pm – 2:00pm
Location: 114A Ellis Library
Register here.

The PowerNotes browser extension allows you to automatically capture text, take notes, and export citations in an outline format, all without ever leaving the article PDF or website you’re currently reading. Designed to seamlessly integrate research into writing, the outline you build in PowerNotes while researching can be exported into either a Word document or Excel file (perfect for those systematic review tables).

This workshop will focus on learning the basics of PowerNotes, identifying ways that it can make your research and writing easier. It will also briefly touch on ways this tool can be used for instruction, helping guide your students through interaction with readings and source material.

Attendees are encouraged to bring their personal laptops to this event.
