I love seeing how others organise their notes and I loved this insight into your commonplace book! You might be the first one I've seen using a ring system.
I’ve been devouring all sorts of articles about commonplacing and this is the one that really clicked for me. Using a ring binder is genius. I’ve been caught up on how to actually organize and archive a bound notebook but this system seems flexible and it takes the pressure off of having to organize in the moment so you can focus on the notes themselves!
I've been experimenting with using a ring binder too. Every time I start a commonplace book in a bound notebook, the inability to organize the pages makes me give up in frustration.
Thank you for sharing your the practices. I tried to look for the tabs on Amazon and your link didn’t work for me. The highlighter link worked and the linen notebook worked just not the tab link.

Thanks so much for the inspiration!
I’m glad it helped!
Thank you for this simple explanation of metadata and for sharing your simple approach to commonplacing. I wish I'd read this sooner.

Where do you find the tiny sheet protector thingy (the thing with the leaf in it?
Let’s see… I got them in a subscription kit I think, but they’re like small laminator sheets.

so helpful! i stared a commonplace book recently but hadn't thought too much about how to organise it so this is good & relevant advice for me!
I always do this in the margins (don't judge me)
