Using NOOK Friends

NOOK Friends is an app that lets you connect to friends, lend and borrow books, share comments and recommen-
dations, and more.
The app creates a social network for NOOK Friends. A NOOK Friend is a friend of yours who has a Barnes & Noble
account and an email address in your contacts list, and who has accepted your invitation to connect as a NOOK
Friend. Friendship is reciprocal. When someone becomes your NOOK Friend, you also become his or her NOOK
Friend.
NOTE: If you have linked your NOOK to your Facebook account, the NOOK Friends app automatically adds
Facebook friends who have BN.com accounts into your NOOK Friends.
NOTE: You can also add a new NOOK Friend by inviting an existing Contact or entering an email address.
Contacts who already have BN.com accounts automatically appear as Suggested Friends in the NOOK
Friends app.

Launching the NOOK Friends App

1. On the Home screen, tap Apps to display the apps on your NOOK.

The NOOK Friends Nav Bar

At the top of the NOOK Friends app you'll see a horizontal nav bar with three buttons. These buttons call up the
app's main features. The buttons are:
• Friends' Activities - a continuously updated news stream about the recent activities, such as shared quotes
and book recommendations, of your NOOK Friends
• LendMe - Barnes & Noble's LendMe technology for borrowing and lending NOOK Books
®
• About Me - your NOOK Friends profile, which shows your name, your photo, the number of books you own,
and other information relevant to the NOOK Friends app
In addition to the NOOK Friends nav bar, the NOOK Friends app features buttons for issuing NOOK Friends invita-
tions and for listing all your NOOK Friends.
We'll describe all these buttons and features in turn.
