# Research Board

The Research Board is designed to help you organize all the background information for your manuscript into clear sections. Each section acts as a container for a specific type of research—whether it’s notes on world‑building, character studies, historical references, or thematic material. By dividing your research this way, you can keep related information grouped together, making it easier to locate and manage as your project grows.

You can access the Research Board from the bottom menu:

In this view, you’ll be able to see all of your **Sections** laid out clearly. Each section is divided into organized segments, making it easier to manage different types of information.

For example, in the section dedicated to Articles, you can create your articles by title and include the corresponding website link:

You can add images, documents, and notes directly into your sections to keep everything neatly ordered. This allows you to maintain a clear structure for your research and supporting material, ensuring that visual references, written resources, and personal annotations are all stored together. By organizing these items within their respective sections, you create a cohesive system where every piece of information is easy to find and contributes to the overall clarity of your manuscript.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://guides.livingwriter.com/product-documentation/mobile-app-guide/boards/research-board.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
