<p>This video provides an overview of various plugins for Obsidian to help with annotating and importing notes from PDFs and ebooks. I focus on how to install and use the community plugin <strong>PDF++</strong> for direct PDF annotation within Obsidian. I also mention other plugins for Kindle, Apple Books, and Zotero integration. The tutorial aims to help students manage their research notes more efficiently within Obsidian.</p>
