How to record quotes from books
Record a short quote, page, context and your comment while respecting copyright.
A quote note should identify the source and your reason for saving it.
Key principle
The tool should reduce decisions and help you return to the book. If maintaining the system takes more time than reading, simplify it.
Step-by-step method
- Record only the brief passage needed.
- Add author, title and page or timestamp.
- Write your own comment.
- Before public use, check quotation rules and context.
Common mistakes
- Copying long passages without need.
- Omitting page or edition.
- Publishing a quote in a way that substitutes for the work.

FAQ
Do I need to add every book?
No. Start with current reads and the next few books.
Is the data public?
No. CzytajTo stores entries locally unless you export them.
Can I change the method later?
Yes. Statuses, tags and goals should evolve with your reading habits.
