This post is a tutorial for my IDT 510 students because I have assigned several Kindle books. This technique is based on a post from the Diigo blog<\/a>. The technique requires Diigo and the Diigo extension. If you highlight and annotate content from within your browser to add a bookmark to Diigo, you probably are already using this extension.<\/p>\n

If you highlight and take notes while reading Kindle books, Amazon stores your notes for you. You can access these notes from\u00a0https:\/\/read.amazon.com\/kp\/notebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you have the recent Diigo extension installed, you should see something interesting when you open the stored notes. There should be a button for moving these notes from the Amazon site to Diigo.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The notes should come into Diigo as a bookmark that when expanded contains your Kindle notes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You could read your notes in this form, but the Diigo post recommends something else. The idea is to take advantage of the Diigo outline tool to do a better job of organizing these notes. The first step is to create an outline for the new notes. The outline heading should offer a large + that can be used to create an outline.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now return to the expanded bookmark for the Kindle content. Open the three dot dropdown menu at the upper, lefthand corner or the entry and you should find an “add to outliner” option. Select the outline you created for the book.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The entire collection of comments will come in as a single heading.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Expand this heading and you will find your collection of highlights and notes. You can now add headings. Move elements of the outline around, indent and outdent entries, etc.<\/p>\n
