Regarding recall from long-term memory: Write it down!
By this, do you mean that the act of recording the information will itself improve recall, independent of later reference to the recorded information? I recall hearing at least anecdotal evidence for such, but I’m not sure how well documented the effect is.
Of course, even without such an effect writing important things down in general is a good habit to acquire.

I was actually thinking more about looking it up later, i.e. extending your long term memory via paper and pencil.
Although I can also report that I remember stuff better if I wrote it down.
