These days, many e-readers allow you to anoint and copy those notes up to your computer. For example, with Kindle on the iPad you can highlight a passage and create an associated note, or bookmark a page. You can then access the annotations via your browser and cut and paste to which ever program you wish. On my mac, I use Yojimbo to hold various bits of info like that. On a windows device I use OneNote (I have an older copy that doesn't upload to the cloud). You could also use evernote.

That is pretty different from what I'm used to, because I have always scribbled books in either pencil marks and underlines while I would also use colored highlighters. I always believed it will be stored easily in my brain if I do so. Nowadays I use Evernote because I always liked its sleek design.
