Choosing an Electronic Laboratory Notebook
Transitioning from paper to digital notebooks requires careful consideration to select the right Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN) for your organisation. It's crucial to first identify your specific requirements for an ELN. With more than a hundred digital notebooks and ELNs on the market, comparing and selecting the best option can be overwhelming. Fortunately, there are resources available to guide organisations in pinpointing solutions that align with their needs, making the decision-making process more manageable.
