How I Annotate Non-Fiction Books:
Step one gathering supplies. The supplies you need will be based on your needs and the text you are annotating so feel free to fit this to your need or habits.
For physical books: highlighters, pens, sticky notes, page flags, index cards, the book/document
For digital books: your device or choice (might do an in depth post of digital texts later)
Tumblr media
step two- creating your key
For small documents, I tend to stick to one color (each of my classes are assigned a single color).
For Longer documents, with lots of information, I will create a key for example:
Tumblr media
keys should be based on what information is most important. In my history classes dates and names are more important whereas in a science class terms and chemical formulas may be most important.
You should also keep in mind why you are reading the book/document. For example: Are you reading to write a book report? Then it would be best to highlight the thesis and any points you wish to bring up in your review.
some parts of your key will most likely not need writing down after they become habit, for example after highlighting an important term, I will underline the definition of the term. (I personally tend to under highlight)
very important highlighted text will also get a page flag so that it is easier to find when reviewing, write a review, etc.
Tumblr media
step three- your first read through
break the reading into smaller segments, for example. if you are reading a textbook or information-dense book you may wish to use headings or subheadings as your guide for this. if your text is not already broken into smaller section resign yourself to summarizing after every few paragraphs
You can write your summaries in whatever way suits you, your habits, or the book you are working with.
Tumblr media
For this book I am writing my summaries in index cards, but I could have written them in sticky notes, or in a notebook (physical or digital.) I have tried all of these techniques and I like them all and tend to switch between them.
Tumblr media
On the back of my summary cards, I write the page numbers the information was pulled from so that I can more quickly find the information if I need to quote it.
Feel free to ask questions in the replies or in my asks!

Making my Digital Library
Why I wanted a digital library:
For years I have been collecting books (classics, specific copies or covers of books, trying to gather all of an author’s works, etc) as well as building a self-library for myself so I always have books across the genres to read.
The only issue with this is my shopping habits; most of my books come from thrift stores and used book shops, this paired with my general forgetfulness, has caused me to often come home to find I already had a copy of a book or the same cover.
So, I devised a solution. I would create a notion library so I could quickly look up a book to see if I had a certain cover or already owned many (read as too many) of the same book.
The process to create the template was quick and painless, a description that cannot be shared for the uploading process, though that can be mostly blamed on the size of my library. I took three days to get all of my books uploaded and I am still finding the occasional book I missed. Luckily uploading 1 missed book (or one newly bought book) is simple and easy.
First, let's do a quick overview of the internal organization
The Libary opens to a Gallery view of all of my books in order of when they were uploaded
Tumblr media
Next, we have a tab that shows a spreadsheet of all of my books organized alphabetically by author (this makes it easier to see my collections of author works)
Tumblr media
Next, are two tabs that showcase all the books I have that I haven't read (and all the books I have read and still have)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Next, I have two tabs that categorize books into "classics" (ie. older than 50 years) and "modern" (ie. newer than 50 years) books

To show you how the individual book system works I will showcase one of my favorite books: 11/22/63 By Stephen King

So I recently heard that someone called Michelangelo’s David Porn. An interesting take on things as this painting
Tumblr media
Is in-fact way more pornographic than this:
Tumblr media
(I realize the irony of me censoring it. My point still stands, I simply don’t know tumblers policy as they may agree with that guy.)
The difference is not is amount of clothing, but in intension, or at least perceived intention as the artiest of both paintings have been dead for centuries at this point.
The first example is the Swing, One of if not the most well known artwork of the rococo period. With its bright and playful atmosphere but also innocent salaciousness. Like the man is looking up her skirt. This was well before bloomers. It’s energetic and meant to slightly ar rouse the audience.
Rococo is an evolution from baroque art, that was an invention of the council at Trent as part of the counter reformation. An attempt to address the grievances the Protestants (Lutherans) had with the Catholic Church at that time. And layed out guidelines to Baroque Art. An Art for the common people, with the highly emotional and highly theatrical simular to the gothic architecture of medieval Europe. I mean if it ain’t baroque don’t fix it I guess. These guidelines seemed to encourage modestly sensual artwork, such as the ecstasy of saint Teresa, or all those baby bum cupids.
In the meantime David here is from the renaissance, and is less about sensuality and more a celebration of the ideal (masculine ) human form. It is a rather reclined, unsexy posed, like you walked in to a show and the guy already there looks at you and acknowledges your presence before going back to washing his hair.
Do note that neither of these pictures are pornography. Sensuality dose not equal porn. After all Marilyn Monroe is well known for her many many sensual roles in films, but her having a body like she did did not immediately mean that her very existence was porn (you know what bad example, that poor lady had to put up with so much just because of her looks). At the same time a lack of clothing dose not equal porn. Christ on the cross is depicted with very little clothes on. But that is much less pornographic than some pictures I have seen where the people are fully dressed. In full length skirts, pants, long sleeve shirts so on and so forth.
This is taken from a textbook called: Culture and Values; a survey of the humanities Volume II by Lawrence s. Cunningham, John J. Reich, Lois Fichner-Rathus. Published by Cengage learning copyrighted in 2018.
It’s a good textbook, but wish it spent more chapters non European humanities, im happy it at least has them, but pre colonial Americas gets one chapter to cover two continents, and Africa got one chapter (not counting Egypt that had a section in the earlier volume (not chapter, section))
I infact am very bad at telling when things are pornographic or not, to the point where I have stumbled across the stuff and not even been aware of what I was seeing. But even I can tell this.
I mean it’s not like I’m an expert on the subject, but I think I understand it at least to the point to say when someone is being st—silly.
