# Highlights & annotations

Papiers indexes your highlights and annotations with the rest of your library.

## Highlights

Select a passage to highlight it.

Highlights appear in the **Highlights** pane for the document. Click one to return to the passage in the source.

Highlights you make on saved web pages with the [Chrome extension](https://wiki.papiers.ai/docs/chrome-extension) sync to Papiers and appear when you open the article in the desktop app.

## Annotations

Add an annotation to write on a specific passage.

Annotations appear with the highlight they belong to and are searchable across your library.
