1. Open your Google Chrome browser. Click on the icon with three dots(also called the snowman) in the upper right corner. Mouse over bookmarks, then click on "Bookmark Manager". As a shortcut, you can also just press Control+Shift+O (the letter).

2. In the Bookmark Manager, click on "Organize", then click on "Export bookmarks to HTML file...".

*Make sure to click export at this point. Clicking import will not give you the correct options.

3. At the windows "Save As" prompt, save the file to your "H:" drive. This will save your bookmarks as a file on the network. This way, if your computer has an unrecoverable failure, or if you want to keep your bookmarks over the summer, you'll have a copy on the network.

Importing a saved bookmarks file

1. Follow the steps above to get to the "Bookmark Manager". Once there, click on "Organize", then "Import bookmarks from HTML file...".

1. Navigate to your "H:" drive and double click on your bookmarks file. This will automatically import the bookmarks you had saved, including any folders and shortcut names.
