And the Read Later Template is all you need to understand why. Combine it with the Notion Web Clipper browser extension or the standard mobile sharing feature of any other app in Notion (on Android or iOS), and it serves as a warm and welcoming home for everything you store.
Notion is surprisingly good at saving links to read later, and the Read Later template is a prime way to get the party started.

Everything you save in this area will automatically appear as its own card, complete with title, image and URL – and, most importantly, the full text of the article waiting inside, optimally formatted and without advertising and other distractions.
You can read or share the information directly, and even edit, comment on, or mark it up as you like. Whether you’re saving work-related articles for your own later reading, or creating a repository of relevant resources for your entire team – for general use or perhaps for specific individual projects – it’s an invaluable way to collect important information and keep it ready for future re-access.
Notion Template #10: Reading List
In addition to organizing online articles, Notion can also help you create actual Books you want to read – be it print editions or e-book equivalents.
This is what the Reading list template is what it’s all about. It’s a carefully crafted structure for storing information about books you want to read – for work or even for personal pleasure, to refresh your brain – and then having a complete collection of everything you’ve read for future reference as well.
Make Notion your personal reference tool with the free reading list template.

With pre-built fields for summaries, categories, and even your current page progress, you’ll never lose track of something important again.
Notion Template #11: Sticky Notes
With all our fancy modern organizational systems, sometimes a good old-fashioned Post-it note is just the thing.
The Notion Sticky Notes Board template brings the same analog style into the digital world, with a virtual bulletin board for all kinds of spontaneous notes – organized into different categories and with a pleasant Post-it-like appearance.
The Sticky Notes template adds an easy Post-it style note-taking space to your Notion environment.

All that’s missing is the glue.
Notion Template #12: AI Text Generator
Last but not least, our list of recommended Notion templates includes a little something that ties in with our current obsession with generative AI: an AI text generator for your own articles, memos, emails, and more.
It is called AI Blog Post Generator Templateand there’s space for a summary of the topic you’re thinking about, as well as a series of bullet points for the main points you want the text to address. Fill in those fields, hit the generate button, and boom: Notion’s built-in AI spits out a text tailored to your purposes.
Create AI-generated text directly in Notion with the AI Blog Post Generator template.

As with any AI-generated creation, the copy probably won’t be perfect and will certainly need a bit of tweaking to make it sound interesting, original and in the right tone for your business. But if AI generation is of any interest to you, it could at least be a useful way to get something off the ground and give yourself some ideas on how to get started.
It’s another tool for your productivity toolbox – and thanks to the template, it’s available right in Notion, just waiting to be used at the right moment.
