Lists will appear
in your dropdown menu …
just like Groups.
Alphabetize Your Diigo Lists
by Focus Areas
•Lists are automatically
alphabetized but if you
do research in more
than one area, your
focus areas will all be
mixed in together.
•Ideally, it would be
nice to have folders
for each sub-topic
area. But they don’t
exist.
Here’s a work-around that will
do the trick…
Rename Your lists. Use the
Focus Area name, followed by
/ … to create a sub-folder.

Your lists will now be
alphabetized both in
the drop down menu
and on your list
page.

that is rapidly changing.
