OneNote is a brilliant way to organise all your notes. Usually, it’s resourceful to produce several notebooks for multiple occasions — like work, school, or home projects. Here’s how to create new notebooks in OneNote for Windows 10.
Create a new notebook for your current account
If you keep all of your notes on the same account that you’re currently signed in with, follow these steps:
- On any page, press the Show Notebooks button
.
- At the bottom of the pane that appears, pick + Notebook.
- Specify a name for the new notebook, and then select Create Notebook. OneNote changes to the new notebook, which includes a new section and a new, blank page.
Create a new notebook in a different account
If you want to keep notes separate on different accounts (for example, your work and home accounts), follow these steps:
- On any page, press the Show Notebooks button
.
- By the top of the resultant Notebooks pane, pick your current account name.
- In the Accounts window that displays, press or tap the + Add Account button, and then sign in once prompted.
- At the bottom of the Notebooks pane that is presented, choose + Notebook.
- In the New Notebook window that emerges, type a name for the new notebook.
- Below Account, pick your desired account to use for the new notebook, and then press Create Notebook.
