This is the second-to-the-last in this series of posts involving my explorations looking for ways to utilize available AI assistants in my reporting.
Earlier, I loaded a set of issues of a 1970s feminist newsletter, Woman Alive, into Google’s NotebookLM. I then used NotebookLM to summarize and describe the contents.
And now I‘ve enabled public sharing of the notebook.
All you’ll need is a Google account, and you can (hopefully) sign in using this link. If it doesn’t work, please let me know and I‘ll try to figure out what the problem is.
Once you sign in, you can ask your own questions, explore the 32 issues in your own way. This is a relatively small set of documents, but exploring it will give you an idea of how it can be used. Ask it whatever questions you want. Then imagine a full notebook with 300 files, some of those hundreds of pages long, and you get the idea of what?s possible.
I should say that I don’t know whether there are limits on how many people try out the notebook, but I doubt this post will generate an unreasonable amount of traffic.
I’ve read online comments by law students or medical students saying that they load classroom lectures and reading/resource materials, and then use NotebookLM to create study questions and flashcards, or explain points that they don’t understand.
In any case, have at it.
And then let us know what you think by leaving a comment here.

Audio resource not available with “You need edit access in order to generate an audio overview.”. I am surprised unless you deleted it before you shared. Also, sign in with my Google account was automatic.
Your ran into a limitation that I wasn’t previously aware of.
The audio overview link works only if you have access as an editor.
But after I clicked the link and created an audio overview, it is now available to anyone who visits the notebook using the original link.
I didn’t know what to expect, so this was good news.
