Library

Your library is where all of your eBooks, magazines, and newspapers reside. Enter your library by tapping my library on the Home menu:

my library

Your library has two sections:

My B&N Library (tap my library > Go to My B&N Library) provides access to the eBooks, magazines, and newspapers that you have purchased from the Barnes & Noble eBookstore, including purchases made from your NOOK and on the BN.com website. You have a unified view of the B&N digital content on your NOOK and in your online digital library. You can show or hide archived B&N content, that is, content that is in your online digital library but not on your NOOK.

My Documents (tap my library > Go to My Documents) provides access to your personal eBooks and periodicals in EPUB, PDB, and PDF formats.

You can create shelves to organize the items in your library. Shelves span the two sections of your library. For that procedure, see “Organizing Your Library” on page 95.

My B&N Library

My B&N Library is the section of your library that stores your B&N content, including eBooks and issues of magazines and newspapers. You select content to read from your library. You can also lend and rate content from the My B&N Library section of your library.

Digital content in My B&N Library is in one of two states:

Local and online: This content has been purchased, delivered to your online digital library, and downloaded to your NOOK.

Online only: This content has not yet been downloaded to your NOOK (through automatic synchronization or request), or has been but has subsequently been archived, which removes the copy from your NOOK.

By default, My B&N Library on your NOOK shows you all B&N content in both your online digital library and on your NOOK. You can choose to hide content that is only in the online digital library.
