* In the short ''[[Harry Potter]]'' fic ''[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5198419/1/Surprise Surprise]'' by Meteoricshipyards, Harry's great-granddaughter reads a document written by her great-grandmother which has handwritten comments by Harry in the margins. Counter to what might be expected, Harry's notes have little if any bearing on the story.
* ''[http://www.accessdenied-rms.net/forums/showthread.php?tid=14534 So You Just Arrived From a Parallel Universe]]'', an [[In-Universe]] book released as part of the [[Mega Crossover]] fic project ''[[My Apartment Manager is not an Isekai Character]]'', is liberally sprinkled with marginalia written by everyone from [[Azumanga Daioh|Tomo Takino]] to [[Ferris Bueller's Day Off|Ferris Bueller]].

* In ''[[Harry Potter/Harry Potter and Thethe Half-Blood Prince (novel)|Harry Potter and Thethe Half-Blood Prince]]'', Harry finding a potion handbook full of helpful annotations in the margins is an important plot point.
** One sidebook in the ''[[Harry Potter]]'' universe, "''[[Fantastic Beasts & and Where to Find Them"]]'', has handwritten notes in the margins by Harry, Ron and occasionally Hermione, for extra comedy value.
* The novelizations of ''[[Yes Minister]]'' reveal that Sir Humphrey is so accustomed to making marginal notes in his official documents that his personal journals are custom-made. They are tall and narrow, giving him nothing but margins to be written in.
