  Be careful when referring to your notes!

  If too many of the wrong people see how you refer to your notes to solidify your position, you run the risk they'll become lazy about keeping their own notes (especially in group meetings) and rely on you to be the de facto scribe!

  No scribe default

  I have never had an issue with others asking me to be the scribe because I make it clear that my notes are preceisely that - my notes.
  
  If you are on a project team then it is imperative that a person is specifically designated to capture meeting minutes to be shared with the team.

  I have been there. Very difficult to get them to start taking their own notes.

  RE: CYA By Keeping Good Notes

  I actually developed a methodology to save me from the disasters of my poor note-taking skills. Not exactly CYA; more to simply improve performance. I got tired of the lack of insight and lackluster followup my notes afforded me. http://www.mightynotes.net
