Gemini Notebook for Reading and Comparing PDF Sources
Google renamed NotebookLM to Gemini Notebook. Import PDFs as sources, ask questions across the materials, and use source references to check the answer.
Who it is for
Students and researchers comparing a few known documents within one source collection.
Limits to check
- Copy-protected PDFs or files beyond the published limits may fail to import.
- Short sources can receive a whole-document reference. Look for the exact passage before quoting a detail.
Try a sample task
Two fictional course handouts with different definitions of the same term.
Compare the definitions in the two selected PDFs. Give the title of each source, the passage supporting its definition and one difference.
What to verify
Open both source references and verify each definition is attributed to the correct handout.
