- The act of notetaking aids memory of information
- Notes (particularly electronic notes where content is easily inserted) allow collation of information from multiple sources (including independent and original thought)
- Not all information is readily accessible (for example, notes taken from a conversation or lecture, where the information may only exist in the memory of the people involved)
- Notes can contain a subset of the available information in other documents, which may make accessing the information easier
- Electronic notes are searchable
Disadvantages of notetaking
- Takes time
- Duplication of information inefficient (updating, storage)
