## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 0.9.7 — 2026-09-10

Notebook fix: a saved note could show its reference list twice - a copy frozen into the note when it was saved, sitting above the live one. Theme notes did the same with their "Spanning books" list. Notes now show one reference list, built from the note's stored sources, so it stays correct as book details are filled in.

### 0.9.6 — 2026-09-09

• References in your notes now carry the real publication year, authors and publisher, instead of reading (n.d.).
• Notes you saved before this update are repaired as they are displayed. The text you wrote is never altered.
• Reference lists no longer appear twice under a saved answer.
• A short line under Ask, and under the reader's ask sheet, now tells you where your question goes.
• Clearer wording for the ask contexts: All books stays the default and still draws in related titles from your library, while Select book/s simply narrows the corpus.

### 0.9.5 — 2026-08-19

No release notes.
