Your Library on Your NOOK Color

Your library is where you keep everything you want to read on NOOK Color. In your library, you will find:
• Books, magazines, and newspapers you have purchased from the NOOKstore.
• Free books you have downloaded from the NOOKstore.
• Computer files you have transferred onto NOOK Color using a USB connection from your PC or Mac. Com-
puter files can include EPUB files, PDF files, and Microsoft Office files, such as Word files and Excel spreadsheets.
To access your library, tap the Library icon on the Quick Nav Bar.

The Media Bar

When you display the Library, your NOOK Color displays the Media Bar: a row of icons along the top of the screen
that give you access to all your content. The icons include:
• Books - Books you have downloaded from the NOOK Store
• Magazines - Magazines you have purchased from the NOOK Store.
• Newspapers - Newspapers you have purchased from the NOOK Store.
• My Shelves - Books and periodicals you have organized into groups.
• My Files - Files you have loaded on NOOK Color from your personal computer. These files can include PDFs,
Microsoft Office files, and EPUB files from a source other than the NOOK Store. (EPUB is a file format for eB-
ooks. EPUB files you purchase from BN.com automatically appear on the Books page rather than in My Files.) My
Files lists any files on your NOOK Color, as well as any files on an SD Memory Card if you have installed the card
in your NOOK Color.
• LendMe - Barnes & Nobles' exclusive LendMe technology for lending and borrowing books. Displays a shelf of
any books you have borrowed, a shelf of any books that other users have offered to lend to you but that you
haven't accepted yet, a shelf of any books you have lent to others, and a shelf of any books that you own that
are still eligible for lending. Also features a button for launching the LendMe features in the NOOK Friends™
app, which you can use to borrow books from friends. See "Using NOOK Friends™" for details.
