Notion is a versatile productivity and organization tool that allows individuals and teams to create, collaborate, and manage tasks, projects, and notes in one centralized location. It is a web-based application that offers a range of features, including note-taking, project management, task tracking, knowledge management, and database building.
Students do not have access to paid-for Notion accounts or the LIS staff Notion intranet.
If you'd like to use Notion whilst studying at LIS you can sign up for a no-cost education account as long as you associate your Notion account with your @lis.ac.uk email address.
With the Education Plan, you'll have access to all Plus Plan features mentioned above, except you will not be able to add additional members to your workspace.
