Here's a shout out to my friend Lawana in Cohort 8! THANK YOU! Regarding how to save article notes taken in Mendeley and needed for an AB. I saw the function in Mendeley but I thought I would get the whole article again with notes embedded in it. And, I just couldn't grasp the new angle on it at that time - so much to learn at once. So, I never tried it. I'm glad when a peer is willing to say something to help - it made me go back and look at the function again. (Rule here, it is good to share your knowledge.) A million thanks! I'm passing it along. Mendeley - load it on your desk top and start using it. Highlight, take notes, store Pdf articles. Then, when you need your AB click: File -> Export Pdf with annotations -> deselect "article content". Wala! Copy and paste what you want or just study your notes. It pays to revisit something you weren't ready for the first time. That's learning - right? Now, I encourage you all to try Mendeley if you haven't. I've been using it as a reader and storage of articles for the beginnings of what will eventually be my dissertation and just now tried the tool with which Lawana helped me. WOW! Nice - I just created a pdf of all my notes from an article and it puts out a beautiful format. It took some time to work through and learn it. But, I am so glad I am spending this precious time up front to learn new technologies; Mendeley is particularly helpful for me right now. For any of you who haven't tried it - take the hour and play with it. If you don't already use something wonderful to organize your articles, citations, and notes, try it. (No, Mendeley is not paying me.) I was prepared to go down the long, sloppy road of which I was most comfortable. When I completed my Masters thesis I had scraps of notes cut and put in to little piles all over the kitchen (I'm dating myself). That was the way we were taught back then (I hope you figured out my age by now - I want people to feel like they can go back to school at any age!). Anyway, I had actually started to revert back yesterday. Then I forced myself to stop and take the necessary time to learn more about Mendeley. I have a long way to go with it but this beats from where I came. Hint: if you haven't started a doctorate program but want to, or you are planning any advanced education, spend time now getting tech savvy (if you haven't already). It will save you time in the long run. If you are tech savvy, you are a step ahead of the game - that should encourage you to move forward in any good endeavor.
