PERSONAL READING LIBRARY · Workflow idea

Keep useful articles close with a highlight you can trace back to the source.

For articles a reader is permitted to save and summarize, organize the title, original link, a short highlight, and an optional topic label in a private reading library. Respect the publisher’s access and reuse terms, check that the highlight preserves the article’s meaning, avoid storing more text than needed, and confirm the saved entry and audience before sharing it with others.

  3. Prepare a concise highlight and topic

    Keep the main point faithful and label uncertain or interpretive wording.

The handoff

A reading-library entry with title, source link, concise highlight, topic label, and access status.

Keep in mind

A summary may omit qualifications or make an author’s argument sound stronger than it is. Keep the original link and publication details, respect site terms and copyright, review generated highlights against the source, and keep private notes separate from material cleared for redistribution.

Set the brief.
Set the standard.
