1. Typing Directly
 * One of the easiest ways to input is typing directly into Evernote.
 * This feature is standard on every version of Evernote, both for laptops and mobile devices.
 * The formatting tools are very similar to other word processors.



2. Attachments
 * Many professors put resources on Sakai, such as study guides, helpful images or figures, and especially their syllabus.
 * Click the paperclip button on the format text bar to add an attachment.



3. Photos
 * If you take notes by hand in a notebook, Evernote can still store the information.
 * Simply snap a photo on your phone in the Evernote app and the image will be automatically put in a note for you.
 * There is also a special page capture feature when photographing typed handouts from your mobile device.



4. Email
 * Each account comes with its own personal email.
 * Therefore, you can send nearly anything to this address and its contents will automatically be added to your default notebook.
 * To find this email address on a Mac: Click your username on the top toolbars, then click "Account Info", and look at the email address listed under "Email notes to"





5. Scan
 * Many page scanners have the capability to upload directly to an email or to Evernote.
 * If the scanner does not upload directly to Evernote, send it to your unique Evernote email for the same effect
 * The Curriculum Materials Library within the main library has one of these scanners.

6. Audio
 * As you are typing a note in Evernote, you can simultaneously record audio which will appear with those notes.
 * This feature is available on both the computer versions of Evernote and on mobile devices.





7. Web Clipper
 * After installation through the Evernote website, the Webclipper can take webpages and directly convert them into notes in your account.



8. Smart Pen
 * Some smart pens now have technology to upload the notes you write directly to your Evernote account.
