## Can Gemini use my Gemini Notebook research inside a normal chat?

Yes. Type @Gemini Notebook in a Gemini chat and it can answer from your notebooks, add sources and save notes. As of October 2026, it works on personal Google accounts and Workspace. If you only need one fact, ask a single question. If you're starting something new, use the full prompt so you get what your research says, what's missing and a 5-day plan, then save it back as a note.

## The prompt

Fill in the parts in [square brackets], or leave them and the AI will ask you for them.

```text
@Gemini Notebook Use my notebooks called [NOTEBOOK NAMES, e.g. Client Research and Course Ideas]. I'm starting [YOUR PROJECT, e.g. a 6-week group program]. First, list the 8 most useful things my sources already say for this project, with the source name next to each point. Second, tell me what's missing that I'd need to find out before I start. Third, give me a plan for the next 5 working days, one main task per day, built on what my sources say. Use only what's in my notebooks for facts, and mark anything that's your own suggestion as "my idea". When I say "save it", save the final plan as a note in [TARGET NOTEBOOK, e.g. Course Ideas].
```

## Step by step

1. Open the Gemini app on the web or your phone
2. Type @Gemini Notebook at the start of your message
3. Paste the prompt and fill in your notebooks and project
4. Say "save it" to store the final plan as a note in your notebook

## What you'll get

A list of what your research already says, the gaps to fill, and a 5-day plan, saved as a note in your notebook.
