When you create a new OneNote 2016 notebook on OneDrive it's in the cloud. This means you can open it from your computer, smart phone, or any web-connected device and it will always be up to date. And, if you'd like, you can share it with others.

In OneNote, choose File > New.
-
If you already see OneDrive as an option, skip to step 5.
-
Choose Add a Place > OneDrive.
-
Enter your OneDrive or Microsoft Account username (for example, a Hotmail, Live, or Outlook.com email address).

Select OneDrive - Personal, give your notebook a name, and then choose Create Notebook.
If you've already created a notebook on your computer, you can move it to OneDrive. After your notebook is on OneDrive you can share it with others.
