NotebookLM Citation Mapper

Export as PDF Turn an answer plus its source list into a PDF in one click, useful for handing a result to someone else or archiving it.

Citation list on its own Just the numbered source list, without the answer text, when all you need is the bibliography.

Rescan on demand Content in Gemini Notebook loads as you scroll and chat. One click refreshes the mapping.

History and statistics Recent copies are kept locally so you can retrieve one you already closed, along with counters for what you have exported.

WHAT IT HANDLES FOR YOU

Collapsed citations When Gemini Notebook folds several sources behind a "..." control, the extension expands them first. Without that step roughly a third of the citations in a long answer are simply absent.

Numbering across a conversation Gemini Notebook numbers citations per answer, so [1] in your second answer is often a different document than [1] in your first. The extension resolves numbers per response and assigns one stable number per document, so a number means the same source throughout.

Clean output Interface elements, banners and duplicated paragraphs are stripped, so you paste the answer and nothing else.

PRIVACY

Everything runs locally in your browser. No analytics, no external servers, no account. The extension only has access to Gemini Notebook pages and never sends your content anywhere. Settings sync through your own Google account; history and statistics stay on the device. You can delete all of it from the settings page at any time.

The full source code is public, so none of this has to be taken on trust: https://github.com/nicremo/notebookLM-citation

WHO IT IS FOR

Students and academics writing with sourced material Researchers who need every claim traceable to a document Journalists and authors checking references Anyone who reads with Gemini Notebook and writes somewhere else

NOTE FOR RETURNING USERS

If the extension stopped working for you recently: Google renamed NotebookLM to Gemini Notebook and moved it to notebook.google.com, which broke the previous version. Version 1.3.0 works on both the new and the old address. After updating, reload any Gemini Notebook tab you already have open, because Chrome only injects extensions when a page loads.

REQUIREMENTS

Chrome or any Chromium based browser. A Gemini Notebook account. Nothing to configure, it works as soon as it is installed.

OPEN SOURCE
