# Templates make notes easier to find [[Templates boost PKM consistency]], but a side-benefit is that they also make notes easier to find. The reason is that they can include relevant metadata and structure, which you can then search for. For instance, if meeting notes are all tagged with `type/meeting`, then it becomes easy to find all meeting notes within the knowledge base. Similarly, the structure "imposed" by templates also help identify and locate specific information within your notes. ## Related - [[Templates boost PKM consistency]] - [[Why templates are beneficial for note-taking and Personal Knowledge Management]] - [[LIFT principle]] - [[FILE framework]]
