I've found note cards to work best- you can put key events on one side- perhaps a title and a few key words- almost outline-like. And on the back, you can put either a significant quote from a source, or- if there are too many of these- just source names and page numbers. Number the note cards and keep a master list in order to cross-reference.<br>

For straight researching, I often started out with an outline- following the example of two professors of mine whom I greatly admire. From there, I would slowly expand it as I developed more info.<br>
<br>
I usually left inputing all of this onto my computer for the very last- but that's because I am an old-fashioned, semi-Luddite who is barely computer-literate.<br>
