Family historians have more need than most people to be organised. We have a lot of electronic and paper files in different places in different formats.

Evernote can collect everything together, all in one place:
- digitised images and digital photographs
- scanned documents
- research notes and database printouts
- PDFs and ebooks
- web pages and links emails
- voice recordings and family videos

We can organise all of this treasure, access it quickly and easily, and synchronise it between our computers, phones and tablets. We can search across and within files, share with others and collaborate on projects.

Evernote can change the way we go about our research and can reduce the need for printing and hardcopy storage. You can also use Evernote to organise other areas of our lives - writing, travelling, shopping, finances, technology - the possibilities are limitless.

Evernote can change your life, and this book will show you how.

The only comment I have to make is the font size in book is tiny...Would much rather it of been larger.
Other than that the book is very helpful

This is well written guide for Evernote based around Genealogical uses. I have used Evernote for the past 2 years and found it a valuable tool for my research. Carole Riley has ensured that the examples used in the book are relevant to family history and are her own real uses. This is a worth while addition to anyone who is using or wants to use Evernotes.
