It's a little hard to find things in the Premium Content section. Is there any way to organize it (such as, have people tag/categorize their submissions by chapter, type (vocab, outline, etc) and book?) and/or make an advanced search for it? Blindly flipping through all those pages is difficult.
Also, the advanced search should have a category option (i.e. search only through US history or Euro)

Need Notes?
While we strive to provide the most comprehensive notes for as many high school textbooks as possible, there are certainly going to be some that we miss. Drop us a note and let us know which textbooks you need. Be sure to include which edition of the textbook you are using! If we see enough demand, we'll do whatever we can to get those notes up on the site for you!
i agree to this its a pain in the butt to find documents that relate to such a broad category
We're making improvements to the premium section. We just added a search bar for each of the different sections. We made it so that when someone uploads a document, the text from the document is extracted so a.) it is searchable b.) you can get an idea of the content of the document without downloading it.
Users are able to manually tag their documents themselves. Unfortunately, not many people do. I have the feeling that if I make that a required field, most people would just throw in broad/non-descript terms any way.
I'm looking into some software called OpenCalais that will scan text of documents and pick out key events, people, places, etc. which could be cool.
Any other thoughts?

I know this is an old thread, but what about the fact that a lot of the premium content has nothing to do with AP classes? People are just submitting random things to get the Cnotes
I'm doing my best to review all of the submitted content every day or two and deleting the ones that aren't legit, which removes the premium status from those users.

Oh cool, I thought you couldn't tell who submitted them :)
It's one of the perks I have as the admin :)
