Reading Books on Your NOOK

You can read books, magazines, and newspapers on your NOOK. You can make notes about what you’re reading,

highlight and annotate favorite passages, and share your thoughts and recommendations with friends on social sites

such as Facebook.

Your NOOK makes reading books fun. To start reading, simply tap on a book’s cover. The book opens and ﬁlls the

page. Then you can use the features described in this section to get the most out of your reading experience.

While you’re reading, you can customize the look of the page. You can switch fonts, make type bigger or smaller, and

adjust line-spacing and margins. You can switch between page designs whenever you like.

Opening a Book

To open a book, tap on its cover. Or if you’re displaying a list of titles in the Library, tap on the book’s title.

Page Layout

When you’re reading content on NOOK, the text ﬁlls most of the page.

The title of the book you’re reading appears in the upper left.

Page numbers appear at the bottom of the screen.
