Aside from continuing study, the most valuable tool we notaries have to protect ourselves from liability is the NOTARY JOURNAL we choose. Each journal entry is an official business record that chronicles the facts of the notarized document . . . but a journal entry that thoroughly evidences the notary''s PROTOCOL better protects the notary. So I set out to create the most COMPREHENSIVE yet EFFICIENT, SPACIOUS, WELL-ORGANIZED, QUICK-FILL SINGLE-PAGE journal entry with PROTOCOL checkboxes: #9632 signer''s mental capacity, voluntary participation & I.D. propriety #9632 notary''s personal knowledge of credible witness (or lack thereof) #9632 administration of oath of affirmation to signer or credible witness ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ I designed this journal exclusively for CALIFORNIA Notaries & Signing Agents #128681 dedicated areas for 2 credible witnesses #128681 omits notary''s personal knowledge of signer''s identity (insufficient) #128681 checkboxes for 7 notarial acts, 7 document types & 7 I.D. types #128681 30+ document sub-types to circle #10022 480-entries (2 per page) in landscape orientation (opens upward like a calendar) other sizes: 100-entry (brown cover); 250-entry (red); 640-entry (gray) #10022 8 informative journal usage pages (sample entries & diagrams) #10022 page for notary''s contact, commission, insurance, bond & journal info #10022 journal preservation (filled book) versus archiving (notary''s incapacity or death) instruction area #10022 11" x 8.5" softbound book; 263 black & white pages
