I use Google books. And if you highlight a passage you can write your own note and it saves the highlighted passage and your notes together in a Google doc on your Google drive. It creates a Google doc for each books. It's life changing for a digital need like me. Lol.

As a Bullet Journalist and a notebook freak, I like using different notebooks for the million things I try to learn everyday. Each notebook has a topic (language learning, mindset, marketing, art, etc) and then I use the Bullet Journal system with index, symbols and color codes to organize my notes inside these different notebooks. I like the ritual of opening my notebooks to reflect on the ideas and the things I’ve learned. But I really like the system with the container and the little boxes. I might give it a try. Thanks Amy!

I don’t comment often- really ever. I just need to pipe in and let you know that I am WAY excited for Vlogmas. I kind of wish I had used the Common Place Book to study when I was still in school. Those smaller removable containers seem like a really great idea for anyone studying multiple topics or growing in multiple areas of their lives. It’s almost like a physically manifested Pinterest board...

The Commonplace Book looks a lot like a version of Niklas Luhmann's zettelkasten. Very cool!
“I like to know things and not unknow them”, is a great line!
Thank you to Ryan as well. I love quotes, so this works for me to have a common place to store and keep things in order. I started to read again. This also helps with having a place to organize what I like to recall.
Been looking for a good box for ages, had to return at least three! Your link has been a life saver. Most thanks!
I’ve been a fan of Ryan and his Stoic teachings for a year now. One of his books appeared on my radar when I was making a big change in my life.
Love this! Kinda like a Pinterest for your own creative idea collections from a bazillion reading sources (books, magazines, online articles, blogs, etc.) I’ve seen artistic people use these in art journals, but this is more quick for those of us not so artsy to organize the good stuff we absorb!
As a summary the card should have: Featured text Name of the book Author's name Book Page (this is easier to find)

I learned about commonplace books from Steven Johnsons books on ideas. I looked into it at the time and not a lot of people where talking about it. I used a massive sketch book and stole some ideas from bullet Journaling (index for sure). It's amazing to have one big book just full of your ideas. I'd print off the cover of the book so they are about and inch and half big and place it in and around the reflections on the book as well as a great visual queue.
Watching in 2021. "make sure you lock eyes with the people around you, as we don't get to do this very often"... Yea, if only you knew what 2020 was going to hold for you!
I have a journal as my common place book but I like this idea because it’s easier to find what you’re looking for!
Omg! I always hid this side of me bc I would be embarrassed when folks realize how much of a nerd I am! Thanks for making me realize that I’m normal!!! Lol great video!!

Those are great ideas, but they don’t fall under the definition of a commonplace book, which is used to collect others’ ideas. If you call it a commonplace book you’ll confuse others who follow the traditional definition, which has been around for centuries, if not longer.
Something other than a bullet journal?! Mind blowing! I'll have to try it out and review it on my channel too ❤️

I’m going to make one of these with a recipe section. I get almost all my recipes online or make them up myself and can find it hard to recreate the same thing again. But also have other sections for things like finances advice and productivity.
This video gave me such good thoughts to think over. I’m mostly thinking about all the content I see online that sometimes I screenshot or revisit. Printing or writing that information onto notecards would save me a lot of troubles. Then cataloging them into topics.
We need more content like this. Thank you, Amy.

This box system idea has both big-brain and chaotic energy to it. I love it! Definitely going to try this once I get my office organized.
My Common Place book currently is on the Evernote app which is on my phone, on my laptop and on the web whenever I need to recall something from a book, journal or a reminder. Sometimes it could be just that one thing I want to focus on before a big meeting or before a huge life event and its always nice for me to have all that knowledge i've accumulated over the years to be at my finger tips.
All this info is such a great reminder I had a few tutors who suggest similar tips while in school
Yes! Can't wait for you to bring him on your channel and podcast!
I have two thoughts that I just wanna leave here. First, I’m interested in the possibilities of a multi colored index card system to reduce excessive labeling, as well as a more fully featured indexing system for the cards or the cards in a book. John Locke tried to develop one and it was used for a long time. I’d like to see modern solutions. Second, I think that this commonplace book system is more powerful than most people are giving it credit. We like to think that we know about subjects and that we’re “informed.” But topics are really complicated and I don’t think that we as a people really do enough audits on how we know what we think we know. We’re easy to fool and lots of scattered surface level knowledge isn’t gonna serve us for too long. The book establishes what we know to ourselves, helps us construct a dialogue between different sources, and it even helps our character with being humble about what we don’t know and also bolstering our confidence about something that we’d otherwise be on shaky ground.
Beautiful video 🤗
Stumbled on this in my hyperfixation on commonplace books. I would argue this is really a Zettelkasten rather than a commonplace book. There's nothing wrong with that, it's another great system for notetaking, but a commonplace is really...a book. It's a notebook where you put a whole bunch of things that you're thinking about/reading/watching/hearing/whatever that catches your attention or that you think is worth remembering. It's not super organized either. What I mean to say is, there is a table of contents and often an index, but let's say you're reading The Great Gatsby, so Monday night you start reading and you put those notes/ideas/etc on pages 1 and 2. Then Tuesday morning you look up how different standards of shoe size relate to each other, so you put that on page 3. Then Tuesday night you read more of The Great Gatsby, so that goes on pages 4 and 5. The table of context and index allow you to find what you want quickly (Great Gatsby on 1-2, 4-5, Shoe sizes on 3), but the style lets you put things wherever as you encounter it. It's super useful for neurodivergent folks who bounce all over the place.
I love how you share in great detail how to source the authors name. Thus, it is perfect and helpful for me.
I take notes on KZread videos/books/podcasts and was just thinking of rewriting them into separate notebooks based on subject because I have notes in so many different places, this is the perfect idea for this!
Hearing all this insightful information is adding this exciting feeling inside me. I see this channel as a source of learning. I create videos and have a future goal to write my book, so all these wonderful details have me smiling, which is what I needed. 😊
Wow, you sparked some ideas. I jot down my thoughts to free up space. I've been writing some pages in markdown, but I was running out of ideas, and your video came in handy.
That's fantastic! I never knew what this was called. I just called it my note box. I've fallen out of the habit, mostly because I had too many cards and needed to downsize. But now I want to try it again and see if I can restrain myself. There really is nothing quite like something tangible and copying notes and making them beautifully organized. In the meantime, I have just done this in Evernote. But oh, this hits me right back in the longing of doing this in a physical space once more. :D Thank you for sharing!

Don't downsize, just expand! Made a box for each year or two. I just issued a commonplace book challenge to my community to do one card a day into just one of the categories. That is 366 cards at the end of 2020!
Amy your my favorite KZreadr 🥰❤️
I love this! I'm doing this with sections of and ideas for my business, using a good old-fashioned (and pretty) three-ring binder. I have a bunch of tab page inserts (also pretty) to organize everything, and I can add to each section at will and expand the sections easily by adding more pages. This is something I'd totally do for book notations, too. Because since I read everything on my Kindle, all my notes and highlights sort of "disappear" once I'm done, because I don't get back to them. Thanks, Amy! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving. :-)

I LOVE this idea! I read everything on my Kindle to avoid book clutter, but I do highlight things. I like your filing system. I have so many journals - this seems like a clean, simple way to collect information gleaned from books, etc.
Wow! What a usful incredible idea. Right now I have over a 100 auditable books with notes all in them. Including your book. Yes I stop them and write notes, usually never to be seen again. Till now. Thanks Amy!
Hi Amy, I love this clever idea. I first saw this container in my days of visiting in person the container store and knew it was perfect for photos and I often would say to myself I will purchase this to organize my photos of my children. It never happened, but now this is an inspiration for me to prepare my writing process for my long, long-awaited wish to write my book. I have more reasons to purchase it and follow this awesome idea. Thank you so much for this topic .
I freaking LOVE this idea!!! So hard to find quotes I write in my journals sometimes. This is WONDERFUL!!
I have done something very similar. As a mom of 3 young kids, it will be a few years before I'd have time to make a box like that again. For now I organize my notes on my iPhone in a similar fashion.
Hey Amy! I was skeptical about watching this video because of the term "Commonplace Book" but I actually love the idea. So to answer your Q I would use this to separate my favorite scripture verses by category. I am very grateful that you shared this with me because I will share this with my Bible study group now! LOOOVVVEEE you. By the way, I noticed your passion shines way more in the vlogs where you bring us along with on your daily life. Please keep sharing that because you living the life you went after inspires us to go after the life we want. sorry this is long, I know you don't like reading long stuff
Also while I have used this in a similar fashion to how you are using it, one of my variations was to have a Project sub box where projects were broken down into coded notecards. Each project received a color and a letter. Each project had a title/master card that listed out the project and the major steps. Each major step then received its own separate index card with the appropriate color and letter in the top right corner. If you have the time to do this and enjoy this sort of thing, it really helps to decrease overwhelm and make the project feel manageable.
I used to do this in college for study notes but in a binder. Now, I think if you get those 4x6 album inserts in a 3 ring binder it may be an easier way to store the index cards. I think I'll try it!
I’ve had a commonplace book for years - I used to use the more traditional notebooks (and still have them) but have moved to a digital version that I store on Notion. So glad CP books are being recognised more these days!!
Oh goodness me. This is such a great tip. But, it's quite overwhelming to try it out now and I need to come back to this and review them. Thank you so much!

This is the best video I've watched on commonplace books.
When I highlight lines from a book on my Kindle, it adds it to a separate file called “Clippings.” Then when I’m done ready the book I download the clippings file to my computer, which I can refer to later. I’ve always had a commonplace notebook since I was in high school. I used to write book passages there but after the kindle, my commonplace notebook now holds random thoughts and ideas from me and from movies and tv shows and videos and lectures.
Anything read=digital format for The Commonplace Book Anything heard (YT, a podcast, audiobook etc)=a physical, notecard commonplace book (with a photo of it added in online format) Best of both worlds!
THANK YOU AMY. You are such an amazing person and I look up to you! You give me the tools to be a better person. I love you so much!!!
Since I've been reading on Kindle (so that I can read anywhere, anytime, even when I'm commuting to work), I simply highlighted everything I found interesting, and after I finished reading the whole book, in the next morning, I'd re-read the highlights and rewrite the stuffs that I still find interesting on my computer, the quotes, the important points, the notes, etc so that I have a digital copy of the essentials of the book. That was the first time for me and so excited to find out that you JUST made a video about this, I didn't even know this is a methodological thing that authors do. I just did it because I love good quotes and nicely thought-out statements, thinking that it would be such a waste to forget them. This is exciting because I've been starting to read again after years of not even touching books because "I don't have the time for that". And Amy, you motivated me to be more productive and at least try waking up at 5AM. So I started by reading a book about it (called The 5AM Club, I know many people don't really enjoy the novelly part of it, but for me who just started reading again, it's a little bit enjoyable although I skipped some parts lol). And it helped! I've been waking up at 5AM lately which I thought was impossible. So Amy, thank you for being, for consistently creating, for bringing such good vibes, just for existing and having the heart to inspire others to be more productive and go after the life that they want. I don't comment often but you deserve to know that you've been changing lives to the better and one of them is mine. Lots of love from Indonesia XO ❤

Hi, thank you for your video. I often don't know how to record thoughts effectivly except by journaling to help refine what I am thinking. I come away from this video considering how, and when I might use the information from a common place book. Creativity generator, dream projects, data on how I have acted seem to be what I might be able to use a book for. I did start a one note project based around a book I was considering to write. The research is half of the fun... well all the fun since I didn't finish it.

I REALLY like this idea! I have done something similar in the past, but not as organized in one box as a collection. Im a teacher and I can see how this idea can be expanded to use in my professional as well as private life. AND something I could share with students.

Now, just make sure your commonplace book is set up for when you start reading.
I'll be telling my writer friends about this. So often I come across an amazing passage or concept I'd like to study further & try implementing into my own writing, but I never write it down. I think I'll have a casual journal at first, with also a selection of quotes I love, mostly until I see if this is something I'll stick with, but I might use the box at some point.
We used this system in graduate school for thesis writing. It didn’t have a name though. I love the box you use here; way more awesome than rubber bands.
Wow thank you for articulating this so well. I had been hearing about this for the past two months.

Holy cow! I've been commonplacing for years and have read Ryan Holiday's article about commonplace books not realizing it was Ryan Holiday, author of the Daily Stoic, who wrote it! I use a computation notebook for the one I'm currently working out of. It's a commonplace/bullet journal hybrid. The notebook came with numbered pages and grid, (I love a grid!) The edge of the page gets a filled in grid with a certain color depending on the topic, I keep an index at the front in case I need to find something specific. It's one of my favorite things to work in. When I'm on the go I add notes to a notion.so page so I can add it to the physical book later.
I LOVE this. Thank you for sharing this life-changing information!
