A GUARDIAN NOTARY JOURNAL FOR EVERY NOTARY


Every notary deserves a journal that is both efficient and tailored to our state's unique notary laws, so all of those logbooks masquerading as state-specific but containing only a generic journal entry just don't cut it (and are actually working against us).
​
To combat the low notary fee maximums imposed (as a public service) per notarial act in each U.S. state, the chief goal in creating my collection of 24 GUARDIAN NOTARY JOURNALS was to empower
every notary to easily and quickly complete more comprehensive, state-specific and accurate notary journal entries, regardless of your notary capacity (Signing Agent, Certified Notary Trust Delivery Agent, attorney or paralegal Estate Planner, or general Notary Public). All 24 of my notary journals enable you
to effortlessly log (via checkboxes & circling pre-printed text) the data required by your particular state (and more) . . . all in just seconds! For sizes and more, use the interactive Matrix @ page bottom.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
GUARDIAN NOTARY JOURNALS offer at least one uber-efficient journal (if not multiple sizes) that truly are tailored to the unique notary laws of your state and your type of notary work. ​​
​​
​​​​​​ ✦ ​each multi-state Guardian Journal (5 total): is actually state-specific for the remaining 41 states by
incorporting the unique notary laws of those 41 states, including: ​​​​​

For sizes or to buy (solely on Amazon), click the white link (E, N or S) for your notary capacity in the
below Matrix in the row for your state, and in the column for your desired book size (# of entries).
Note: All journals are available in a 100-entry sampler size (140-entry for a NSA/LSA or CNTDA).
For future purchases, the best value (i.e. lowest price-per-entry) is the largest size of each book title. ​​​​​​

1 Hawaii notary law requires notary journals to be smaller than 8.5" x 11" (to accommodate government storage)
so my Notary Journal for Hawaii will launch in 2026.
