Your Moleskine 2026 Weekly Diary requires minimal setup. Simply open it and begin planning!
Review the Layout: Familiarize yourself with the weekly appointment page (left) and the lined note page (right).
Utilize Planning Tools: Before starting the year, explore the calendar overviews, travel planning section, and 'Ideas & Goals' pages to set up your long-term vision.

This is a physical planning tool and does not have digital compatibility. Its primary compatibility is with your personal organizational style and preferred writing instruments.
Writing Instruments: Most pens, pencils, and markers work well. For fountain pen users, test your ink on a less critical page (like the very back or inside cover) to ensure no bleed-through or feathering, as ink behavior can vary.
Proper care will ensure your Moleskine diary lasts the entire year and beyond.
Protect the Cover: Keep the hardcover clean by wiping it gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Use the Elastic Closure: Always use the elastic band to keep the diary securely closed when not in use. This protects the pages from damage, especially when carried in a bag.
Mind the Pages: Avoid exposing the diary to excessive moisture, direct sunlight, or extreme temperatures, which can damage the paper and cover.
Avoid Overfilling: While durable, excessive inserts or thick mementos tucked between pages can strain the binding. Use the dedicated pocket in the back for small loose items.
Handle with Care: While robust, avoid bending the spine aggressively to maintain the diary's structural integrity.
