After a bicycle accident and consequential brain injury, my organizational skills were compromised, and I had to simplify my approach to organizing information.

Evernote is where I record my thoughts, which I manually index with several sets of tags. One set I call action tags are based on “The Secret Weapon” (http://www.thesecretweapon.org/). Another set are research tags indicating the type (PeerReviewed, CourtRuling, Blog, Wiki) and value of resources, such as whether an article is direct research or based on a literature review, the possible biases for each source, and that sort of thing. I frequently will do keyword searches in Mendeley, and then print the report directly to Evernote, where I will add comments about the rationale for including the article, a synopsis of the content, and a comment about the trustworthiness of the source in what becomes an informal literature review. I can produce this kind of document in half an hour, because I research topics that interest me all the time, and have pre-filtered and indexed the material as an ongoing activity.

While these habits were established by working to overcome memory, focusing, and sequencing issues after my brain injury, they have proven to be useful habits for quickly evaluating and understanding issues (mostly related to learning how to better accommodate my disability, and eventually with the hope of organizing resources for other survivors and their caregivers.)

But for research…..not sure. When I was in graduate school, I created an Access database to store everything that I highlight from a paper. I have Javascript on the PDF that extracts what I highlighted, asks me for the “title of my index card” and then put it in. I’ve linked the datatbase to my bibliographic manager. And that’s the big advantage, that the bibliographic manager can download citations from Library of Congress, Pubmed, etc, and so it does my bibliography in Word. I’m going to look at my system and see if there’s a way to also use Evernote with it.

I am a teacher that uses Evernote both personnaly and professionally. I teach a research class at the high school level and am in the process of introducing Evernote to my students. They are using it to compile their research for a history term paper.
We are at the point where the research is complete and they need to begin to start writing. What are your tips for organizing the information before they can start writing? They currently use tags to categorize their content and they understand their content is searchable.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I am writing my dissertation, and I am using Evernote to store my notes, ideas, references and comments from my dissertation committee.

My favorite tip in this post was to store the audio recording of interviews AND put the transcripts in the same note as with the audio file. So simple and such a great idea. Thanks Alexandra.

I had hoped for a more specific set of recommendations re a tagging hierarchy, advanced search methods, an example of how you specifically used Evernote (I’ve been using it since ’09) to do research on the web.

Furthermore, no content on any of the apps, tools etc. that integrate with Evernote, the briefest of TextExpander mentions, nothing about using note links to cross connect notes.

All in all, a lot less than I expected.
