Hi, welcome to the forum

Just to clarify: you mean

1. a shortcut for moving a (selected) note to another notebook?

2. Or you'd like a shortcut to move a notebook (of a selected note) into a different notebook?

Although I understand it is not exactly what you're asking for, the first feature can be roughly achieved via the next plugin

> [@Plugin: Quick Move Notes](https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/plugin-quick-move-notes/16258):

> Hi everybody, Here is another small plugin that simply provides a few new commands. With the help of the commands you can quickly and easily move the selected note(s) to another notebook. This works best if you assign keyboard shortcuts to the commands. By default there are already some shortcuts assigned (e.g. CmdOrCtrl+Shift+1) to the commands. How it works, you can find in the [README](https://github.com/benji300/joplin-quick-move#usage). It should be available in the App soon. This is how it looks like in the settings/options view:

The second one is not possible as the moment, that's true, although in theory, the appropriate plugin can be developed i.e. achieved via Joplin API. The question is only who'd want to do it.
