# Notes and highlights
When you find passages of text that you consider useful, or you have ideas while reading a document that you don't want to forget, the best way of organising your research is by using vLex's notes and highlights feature. When reading a document, highlight any part of the text with your cursor and a menu will appear giving you two options: **Highlight** or **Note**.
## **Highlight**
Highlight allows you to pinpoint important parts of the text. You will be able to see your highlighted text to the left of the document as soon as you refresh the page.
## **Note**
Add a note to any highlighted text. It could be a reminder, an analysis, or just somewhere to jot down ideas as you get them. The note will be shown next to the highlighted text on the left side of the document, and will be visible as soon as you refresh the page.
Your highlights will be green to differentiate them from the commonly cited passages, which appear in different shades of blue.
## **Highlight and note management**
To access your documents with highlights and notes, go to **Folders** from the main menu and select **Documents with marks**.
When you open any document, your notes and highlights will be on the left. For a highlight, you will see the text in green. For a note, your addition will be in bold.
To delete a note or highlight, use the **Clear** icon.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://support.vlex.com/features/document-management/notes-and-highlights.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
