Well you can make up your own cookbook, and copy your favorite recipes in it or copy them on index cards.
You can also, just grab a notebook and list the name of the recipe, the cookbook and the page.
Or just put some stickies on the pages, hanging out, put the name on the stickie.
Use different colors for different things - pink for desserts, red for soups etc.
You can take your cookbooks to an office supply place, make copies of you r favorite recipes and put them in a 3 hole binder
Hope one of these works for you.

I keep a spiral bound notebook with my cookbooks. In it I keep a record of recipes I've enjoyed and a reference to what page and cookbook the recipe came from. I sometimes include notes about what I did to modify the recipe or what substitutions I made. I also use the notebook to record menu plans that went well.
I know this is do-able for you. I have over 150 cookbooks and it works for me.

They sell books that come with blank pages for recipes, tabs to sort the recipes by catagory, and pockets to hold other recipe cards, clippings that you may have. I have one and write all my favorite recipes in it. It's the first cookbook I reach for when it's time to make dinner!
Good luck

photocopy/write out your favourites and paste them into a scrapbook
