Private Notes

You can add a private note to any title on your shelves. Private notes are not visible to other library members or staff.

To add a private note from a title’s details page

1. Log in to your account.
2. Go to the shelf containing the title.
3. On the menu bar at the bottom of the item, click More, and then click Private note.
4. In the Add private note popup, type your note in the text box. You can add up to 4000 characters, or about 700 words.
5. When you are finished, click Save to save your note.

Private notes appear above an item’s menu bar and can be edited or deleted using the controls after the note. Click the pencil icon to edit it or the trash can icon to delete it.

Notes:

• Private notes are different from Personal tags. You can use personal tags to filter items in your collection. Private notes are not used for filtering.
• You might use a private note to record your reading progress if you have to return a book to the library before you finish it.
