## **Notes and Documentation** ##
#### **This is a space included for all your notes and other documentation related to your day-to-day work.** ####
Here you may want to include:
- Notes done in your preferred space whether this be through MS Word on your computer, Google drive, or JHBox.
- Images files,
- Audio and visual recordings
- Even snapshots of the paper notes you use...
- Templates for recording results or observations.
- This may also be the space where you include any documentation in the form or a codebook, data dictionary or definition of study variables.
You may want to organize different stages of your work in different folders within this component. We recommend following a file-naming convention with the date at the end so that you can easily view your notes chronologically.
If you'd like to learn how to utilize a third-party storage service add-on for your notes and documentation see: <a href="http://help.osf.io/m/addons">**Using Add-ons**</a> for a step-by-step guide.
