TL;DR
- Notebooks in Gemini are now available to Workspace and Google Education accounts.
- The feature has been live for regular Google users since April.
- Workspace admins must enable Gemini features at the organization level to enable it.
A few months ago, Google expanded NotebookLM’s footprint (before the app was renamed to Gemini Notebook) in the main Gemini interface on the web by adding a direct shortcut. This feature, called “Notebooks in Gemini,” was soon expanded to Gemini’s mobile apps, and has since been available to all free and paid users with a Gmail account.
Now, Google is expanding Notebooks in Gemini to users with business or education accounts under the Google Workspace program. With this expansion, students, educators, and enterprise users can organize their notes and any resources pulled from the internet using notebooks in Gemini and create interactive learning material, reports, slide decks, etc. with that information.
The features have already been accessible to Workspace users via Gemini Notebook (previously NotebookLM), but access directly within Gemini simply reduces a few steps.
Google says Notebooks in Gemini are now enabled by default for all Workspace accounts, but admins can control or restrict who can use them. For it to be available, both Gemini and Gemini Notebook must be enabled at the organization level. The feature is currently not available to users in the European Economic Area (EEA) due to regional restrictions on AI.
