Silent Library Study with WriteScan Backups

Overview

How to review quietly in libraries or study rooms where paper notebooks are hard to use. Minimal taps, no sound, and text-first notes for quick recall.

Prep before you sit (5 min)

• Favorite today’s target notes; ensure offline availability.
• Standardize titles to YYYY-MM-DD_subject_topic for fast search.
• Pick text-heavy notes if you don’t have headphones.

In-library flow

1. Open favorites and read in order—no searching needed.
2. Add bullet insights via soft keyboard or flick input to stay quiet.
3. Skip new photos; just note “add photo later” in the body.

Staying focused

• Widen line spacing; switch dark/light to ease eye strain.
• Use 45-min blocks: “1 note = 1 output” (summary or question).
• Tough topics go to a “later” list; keep the current block for quick wins.

After leaving (10 min)

• Insert missing photos/equations where you left placeholders.
• Tag library to collect notes best read in quiet spaces.
• Prune redundant images, keep text concise.

Pitfalls & fixes

• No signal → Use favorites + cached notes.
• Image overload → Keep 1–2 key images, move the rest to text summary.
• Interruptions → Add a “resume here” line at the top before you stop.

Mini checklist

• Favorited today’s notes; offline OK
• Text-first notes picked
