Use the Notebook Navigation Pane

Quick reference

• 00:04 So let's see how to navigate through different notebooks in OneNote.
• 00:09 So, so far through the lessons I be using the Quick Notes.
• 00:14 So to get to the Quick Notes, you should be able to click on this pull-down.
• 00:18 And then you should be able to see Quick Notes there.
• 00:22 But I'm going to make a new notebook now.
• 00:25 So I can click on this pull-down where it says Quick Notes, and
• 00:28 then I'll say Add a notebook.
• 00:30 So usually I would add a notebook for maybe different projects, or for
• 00:36 different departments that I'm working with, or different teams.
• 00:41 You can decide how you're going to use your notebooks.
• 00:43 And you can have as many notebooks as you want.
• 00:45 So I'm going to add a notebook now, okay.
• 00:48 In this case, if I want to give it a name, well,
• 00:52 this is going to ask me where I want to save it.
• 00:55 And I'll put it into let's say my Desktop folder.
• 01:02 And I want to give that notebook a name, so
• 01:05 let's say this is going to be for Webinars.
• 01:10 So the notebook is called Webinars now.
• 01:13 Okay, so now let's see how we can manage this.
• 01:17 If I click on the pull-down where it says Webinars,
• 01:20 then there I can Add another notebook.
• 01:23 If there was more that I created, they would be shown there.
• 01:27 If I click on Open Other Notebooks,
• 01:30 then notice how I can get to my previous ones there, let me go back.
• 01:37 Or if I click in that pull-down where it says Webinars,
• 01:39 I can always go back to the Quick Notes.
• 01:41 The Quick Notes are always there, I can easily return to that.
• 01:45 But notice how I can click on that pull-down and
• 01:48 either Add a new notebook, or I can go to the one that I'm in.
• 01:53 Sometimes you'll see more than just the one that you're in there.
• 01:55 I can open up Other Notebooks or I can go back to this Quick Notes.
• 01:59 Let's go back to the Webinars, and now we're back to this one.
• 02:03 So the notebook can be broken down into sections.
• 02:09 The different sections can be different webinars that I'm doing, or
• 02:14 maybe different courses.
• 02:16 So you can decide how you're going to use your sections.
• 02:18 But you can see I have Section 1 there.
• 02:21 And then there, it will be pretty obvious on how to add a new section.
• 02:25 And then the notebook can have as many sections going across as you need.
• 02:30 And in the next lesson we'll talk about how to manage those sections a little
• 02:33 bit further.
• 02:35 And then you see where the cursor is right now?
• 02:39 I'll just type in Page 1 right there, and then Page 1 will show up over here.
• 02:46 And then I can add pages to that section.
• 02:48 And that section could have as many pages as you want.
• 02:52 So the notebook can have as many sections as you want.
• 02:55 And the sections can have as many pages as you want, as well.
• 02:58 So you can see over here, I can add the pages.
• 03:01 Now of course, I can right click on that page.
• 03:05 And then you see a lot of the popular choices there.
• 03:08 You can Rename the page, Delete it, Cut and Paste it.
• 03:11 We can Move it to a different section.
• 03:14 Here, I can add a New Page.
• 03:16 Or if I right click on that section, same kind of things, right?
• 03:20 We can Move or Copy it, Delete that section, Rename it, and so on, all right?
• 03:25 So now you can start to see, when I pick up this pull-down here,
• 03:31 I can Add another workbook.
• 03:34 I can see some of the previous ones that I've worked with.
• 03:37 Here I can Open up all my other notebooks.
• 03:40 And then there is a way to get back to that Quick Notes.
• 03:43 The notebooks, the regular notebooks that you add,
• 03:47 will allow you to add multiple sections, which are here.
• 03:50 And if you have a lot of sections, they'll be across the top there.
• 03:53 And then we can have multiple pages as well.
• 03:58 And now you see how to use the Notebook navigation pane.
