In the interests of sharing with my fellow Honours crew I'm using the following template to take notes on journal articles for my literature review.
It is adapted from a book called Demystifying the Dissertation by Peg Boyle Single http://books.google.com.au/books/about/Demystifying_Dissertation_Writing.html?id=EoDXe9ZC_1EC&redir_esc=y
I'm using End Note as my bibliography tool (yes I know there are many better tools out there now but I already had a large End Note library and it felt too hard to change).
I'm pasting this template into the 'research notes' section of the reference and attaching the pdf so everything is in one place.
