Google has introduced a new feature to enhance the sharing of NotebookLM notebooks through public links. This update allows users to share their notebooks more easily, mirroring the familiar sharing interfaces seen in Google Drive and Google Docs. With this new functionality, users can now generate public links for their notebooks, allowing them to share their work with anyone.
To do this, simply click the Share button in the top right corner of the notebook. This action opens a sharing menu that closely resembles those found in other Google productivity applications. Users can choose whether to restrict access to specific individuals or make the notebook available to anyone with the link.
This feature simplifies the process of sharing NotebookLM notebooks significantly. Google suggests various scenarios where public links could be beneficial, such as sharing projects for nonprofits, product manuals for businesses, or study guides for classes. It’s a versatile tool aimed at enhancing collaboration and accessibility.
While those who access the public links will not have editing permissions, they can still interact in meaningful ways. Viewers can ask the Gemini AI questions about the content within the notebook and can access any Audio Overviews included. This inclusion encourages engagement and allows users to gain deeper insights from the shared material without compromising the integrity of the original content.
Overall, these updates reflect Google’s commitment to improving user experience and fostering collaboration in their productivity tools.
