14 Book Mark Option – this book mark will stay as you read to allow you to later see which pages you noted

15 Notes Option – this is excellent for both teacher and student use! While reading, when a passage triggers any response for note taking, right click on that page to open a place to add a note. This opens a box where you type a short title, and then type whatever you had in mind. When you close this box, it will mark the page with a book icon that is easy to see and find later. It can also be moved about the page to get it off text/to the margins. You can also later click on the NotePad icon and it will show you all the pages you have notes on for your quick reference.

16 Notes - Great for Teacher and Student Use: Student Use: A great option for students writing research papers to take notes as they read ideas/passages pertinent to their topic or thesis Also can be utilized for a class reading a novel for student note taking to respond to class discussion, teacher focused questions, or other comments and questions a student might have while reading Teacher Use: A great tool for teachers during planning to make notes that can be used with the class during presentation Teacher can also take and add notes during a class discussion as ideas come up based on student response using a Promethean/Projection screen A great way to model effective use of note-taking for any/all students, regardless of assignment type

17 When you right click on the page, this box will pop up. Chose Add Note.

18 This box will open – type your title and note about the page, then hit SAVE.

19 This is what it will look like once you hit SAVE and close the note box. You can move this icon to the margins by dragging it if it blocks text. If you hover on this icon, it will also tell you the title of the note for your quick reference/reminder.

20 Close Book icon

21 What to Do When Done if just “Reading Online” If you were just reading it online and never checked it out, make sure you close the book after your use and then close the window. This allows others to then have access to it when you are done, if they log on and need the same book.

22 What to Do when Done if you checked the book out to use/read: Click on the same Close Book icon shown before However, if you had it checked out, this time a message will pop up, directing you to: ▫“Click here to keep this title” OR ▫“Click here to return this title early” Make your choice, and then be sure to close the window. Again, this either keeps the book checked out for your use, blocking others from using it, or returns it to the e-shelves for everyone’s access again.
