Klib is a new way to manage highlights and notes for Kindle & Apple Books. As a great clippings manger, Klib could help you gain more from reading.
Every time you starts Klib, Klib will automatically import highlights from Amazon, and then export to Evernote. Your highlights will be safe and accessible everywhere via Evernote.
1. Klib: Live For Notes
Focus on Now
The number of books we read is ever-increasing. If we consider all these books together, we will be lost.
Klib is an app which groups all your read books together in one place. Your ‘read books’ group can be collapsed. You can even hide the book list and only read the notes.
Tips:
- You can select multiple books and mark them as read. It’s very useful after doing an import for the first time.
- If you usually read saved web pages in Kindle, with Klib you can merge them together as one book.
- How do you distinguish between highlights and notes? Easy, Klib notes haves an ✍️ Emoji icon at the beginning of each entry.
Read Notes in an Elegant Way
With the clean and beautiful ‘Reader’, you can enjoy reading your highlights.
Tips: Press ⌘R
to quickly switch to ‘Reader’ mode.
Review Notes in Kindle for macOS
When reviewing notes, you may want to read that part of the book again. In this case, Klib can open Kindle for macOS and jump to the exact location. Very cool and useful.
You can also press the Space
bar in Klib to quickly preview the selected note. Feel familiar?
Open With Amazon
When reviewing books we sometimes want to view the table of contents, customer reviews, or other books written by same author. In this case, Klib can open the book on the Amazon site with one click.
Free to Edit
In Klib you can freely edit the book title, author, highlights, notes, etc.
Mark as Chapter
Chapters are very important when review notes of a book. But unfortunately Kindle didn’t export these information. How to do? Here is a way around it.
- Add highlight for chapters’ text.
- After imported into Klib, select all the highlights for chapters, mark them as chapters.
- When copy a book’s highlights and notes, Klib will add 2nd level titles for chapters.
Show Image in Highlights
Klib support showing images with Markdown format in highlights.
So, when you add notes for image to table in books, you can take screenshot of Kindle, and then insert in Klib.
Search Anything
You can search for any of the following content in Klib: book title, author, highlight (content, location, date), etc.
For example, if I want to search a note with the text value
which I read in 2017
, just search 2017 value
.

After copying notes as Markdown, you can easily share them on your blog or anywhere else.
In fact, this is why I developed Klib. After reading a book I like to summarise it in my blog. And the highlights and notes are important parts of the summary. So, I made Klib to copy them as Markdown.

Driving employee engagement is difficult and requires a holistic approach to changing organizational culture. Access to learning tools like a constantly updated library has been identified by companies as one of the top levers of employee engagement in the modern workplace.
Klibanoff
An organization with a learning culture encourages continuous learning and invests in the fact that systems influence each other. Since constant learning elevates an individual as a worker and as a person, it opens opportunities for the establishment to transform continuously for the better.
