Evernote for Academics: Search
Searching in Evernote is really easy and 90% of the time I just search for a couple words that I am looking for and I can find my document. So this post is just going to contain a couple links to helpful places that give a more in-depth look into searching Evernote.
Recently Evernote came out with “Descriptive Search” on the Mac. This just means that you can use natural language syntax for search. For example, to search for the word “gospel” in a notebook called Biblical Studies you can just type in “notebook biblical studies gospel” instead of typing notebook:"biblical studies: gospel, which you need that exact syntax. I find this extremely helpful because using natural language is much easier to remember because you actually don’t really have to remember anything. You just type what seems natural to find what you want.
See this post for a more in-depth overview. Evernote has also helpfully provided some more details on how to use descriptive search.
