Note

Notes are ingame source texts which provide (additional) information on certain subjects. Although they sometimes contain images, video and audio information is usually rather presented in holodisks.

Fallout 3
In Fallout 3, notes are automatically added from picking up holodisks or certain pieces of paper. Instead of showing in your inventory, notes are input directly into your Pip-Boy and can be read or listened to in the "Notes" category of the Data screen. Certain lines of conversation will also add notes, often by pressing a certain topic. They can be accessed in the Data menu.
