Create a New Notebook in OneNote- Tutorial

Create a New Notebook in OneNote: Overview

            You can have as many notebooks as you wish in OneNote. For example, you might have one notebook for work and one for home. To create a new notebook in OneNote, click the “File” tab in the Ribbon to open Backstage View and then click “New” at the left-hand side of the screen.

            In the “New Notebook” section that appears to the right, you will first need to decide where you will be saving your notebook and if you want to share it. For example, you can select to save the notebook to the web using your OneDrive account, which lets users access the notebook with their internet browsers. Alternatively, you can save the notebook to a computer or network by selecting the “Computer” option instead. In this case, you will need provide OneNote with the exact location of the network path to which you wish to save the new notebook you are creating. Remember, if you save it to the web or a shared network location, others that can access those locations will be able to share the notebooks.

            If the notebook is to be stored on your computer or on a network, click “Computer” and enter a name for the notebook in the “Notebook Name” textbox. By default, the notebook will be stored in the “OneNote Notebooks” folder within your “Documents” folder. If you click the “Create Notebook” button, it will be stored there. If you prefer to save it to another location, click the “Create in a different folder” link, where you can navigate to the location and change the name. Then, just click “Create” to create the notebook.

            You can also click the “Add a Place” button to create a place to which you frequently save, such as Office 365 or a particular OneDrive account. Click or tap to select your choice and login to save the location.
