If this matters at all, my process in reading all of my research material is...
1. Read a section
2. Highlight important info while reading
a. Rotate colors continuously for each new unrelated topic
b. Continue with the same color to indicate the topics are related
c. Thick line indicates most important info
d. Thin line indicates less important supporting info
3. Go back to beginning of section, take notes on highlighted text
a. Notes are usually either direct quotations, summaries, or charts
b. Not all highlighted info proves relevant to make notes of
c. Underline in notes the key words, phrases, concepts, etc that are the most important
4. Take a nap.
5. Start it all again with the next section till done!
6. If book or article did not have adequate intro or conclusion, might need to make additional summarization notes
