Save for Later in SharePoint News

What It Is:

Bookmarking is nothing new, and the Save for Later feature has been available in SharePoint Online for some time, but this small feature continues to be an important (and underrated) tool for individuals to keep important new and content organized. Along with the ability to pin the documents you’re working on within an application or on your desktop, this bookmarking capability has become essential.
