Your English teacher would probably be mortified, but you can safely ignore these grammar "rules."

"During the second-pass, I usually use yellow for interesting or important sentences. Orange is for citations and green for definitions or catchphrases. However, feel free to use whatever system you may please. Keep in mind that highlighting does not replace note-taking! During the second-pass you can take notes at the margins, draw little diagrams for better understanding and use highlighters in combination."

Increase your efficiency with the three-pass approach

"I would argue that there is nothing more sustaining to long-term creative work than time and space – these things cost money – and the fact that some people have access to it for reasons that are often outside of their control continues to create an ecosystem in which the tenor of the voices that we hear from most often remains similar. It is no wonder, I say often to students, that so much of the canon is about rich white people. Who else, after all, has the time and space to finish a book. Who else, after all, as the book is coming out, has the time and space and money to promote and publicize that book?"

"A coalition of archivists, activists, and libraries are working overtime to make it easier to identify the many books that are secretly in the public domain, digitize them, and make them freely available online to everyone. The people behind the effort are now hoping to upload these books to the Internet Archive, one of the largest digital archives on the internet."

Millions of books are secretly in the public domain thanks to a copyright loophole, a new project seeks to put them on the Internet Archive.

"The languages we speak influence how we construct society, and can even set the precedent for gender equality in our social systems. In a 2011 study, Jennifer Prewitt-Freilino, associate professor at the Rhode Island school of design, along with colleagues, found that countries with gendered languages experienced higher average gender inequality. The study also revealed that natural gender languages like English experienced the most equality, although one might expect that genderless languages would be the most equal."

Languages have very different rules when it comes to gender – but does that have an impact on how we see the world? Nayantara Dutta takes a look.

"Stereotypes about Indigenous people remain pervasive, even when not consciously derogatory. The CP Stylebook underscores just how much more we need to do to move beyond those stereotypes (see: the “common misconception that most Indigenous Peoples live on reserves”)."

Journalists’ word choices are shaped by colonialism. Here’s how The Tyee is changing that.

"And so in today’s crop of dystopian fiction, the stakes are bigger than ever. Continuing in a proud tradition, they carry on vindicating the definition of a dystopia: a worst possible world. But what each of them (sometimes) offers is a brief, shining belief that such a world can be fixed. And now, the resurgence of sales for books such as 1984 and Brave New World shows that a vast contingent of us continue to turn towards the genre for comfort, or answers."

George Orwell is back in vogue these days — a far cry from 2014, when The Guardian was debating whether or not 1984 was good bad or bad good fiction. In January this year, 1984 shot up the bestseller charts, and the trail doesn’t just go cold there. Soon joining it at the top were 1984’s o...
