This is Venecia. First, I'm also a huge fan of Todoist (paid).
I feel like OneNote might be just the thing for you. It comes with Office and is relatively lightweight. It's like a hyper flexible text editor where you can keep all kinds of stuff, from notes, lists, links (websites, emails, documents on your network). You can type anywhere on the page and if you have a tablet even hand write.
The context hierarchy is Notebook (dropdown) / Section (tab) / Page (side menu). Navigation is easy and intuitive. You can have everything in a single place or categorize as necessary. And it has fast text search where you can set scope (all notebooks, this notebook, this page) and get sorted results. It autosaves and keeps history.
Finally, there are apps for your smart phone so you could, in theory, be in the stacks with your phone referencing your notes.
