IDAHO NOTARY HANDBOOK - CH 2 - NOTARY JOURNAL
It's a good idea for Idaho notaries to keep a notary journal in which all notarial acts are recorded. The journals should be either a permanent, bound paper journal designed to deter fraud or a permanent, tamper-evident electronic journal.
Each journal entry should include the date and time of the notarization; the type of notarial act, a description of the document (usually the document date and type); the type of identification used; the signature, printed name, and address of the person for whom the notarial act was performed (except for certified deposition transcripts or certified copies); and the fee (if any) charged for the notarization.
