Share notebooks

Evernote lets you quickly and easily share any of your notebooks with other people, if you choose. Share notebooks to allow others to view and collaborate on work. For example:

• Organize a group project – Collect all your meeting notes, files and to-do lists in one place.
• Build a creative repository – Save design inspiration, articles and photos.
• Plan a business trip – Put your itineraries, packing list and phone numbers where you can always access them.

To share individual notes without sharing the entire notebook, visit Share notes.
