I'm trying to work out a good way to keep track of all the fics I either may have read, or have at least made copies of previously. I keep finding myself printing off a fic that I don't recall reading only to find that yes I have read it already. And if it's one of the rather long ones that's a lot of paper and ink, not to mention the trees that I'm killing. I've tried reading them online, but if its longer than a couple of thousand words I get lost as to where I am. also it's impossible, (for me) to highlight or make notes while I'm reading.
I've kept notebooks for the past 10 plus years trying to log them all in, but there's a lot of fics listed in there, and they're in multiple notebooks. Recently I started a couple of excel spreadsheets to try and organize, but I'm not sure that's going to work either.
Has anyone found a foolproof way that seems to work for them? I'd love to know what it is. I know a lot use the bookmarks aspect of A03, but I use mine to keep track of the fics I most want to read, not the ones I've already read.
