Magazines and Newspapers
You can purchase subscriptions to magazines and newspapers, as well as single issues. Issues delivered by subscription and single issues have the same content. They are digital versions of the magazines and newspapers that are delivered by Barnes & Noble to your NOOK. They differ from print versions of the magazines and newspapers, and from web versions that are in some cases available directly from publishers. For example, advertisements are not present.
Barnes & Noble subscriptions and web subscriptions are different. Purchasing one does not get you the other.
Issues of periodicals purchased singly and delivered by subscription behave differently in your library. For more information, see “Managing Periodical Issues” on page 106.
