On any page, click the Show Notebooks button .
At the bottom of the pane that appears, click + Notebook.
Enter a name for the new notebook, and then click Create Notebook.

OneNote switches to the new notebook, which contains a new section and a new, blank page.

To switch between multiple notebooks:

On any page, click the Show Notebooks button .

If you change your mind about something you’ve recently added or changed, click or tap the Undo The undo button in OneNote. button near the top right of the app window.
