Determining whether a Book Can Be Lent

Not all books can be lent. Here's how you can determine whether or not a book is lendable.
• Any book eligible for lending has a LendMe badge on its cover.
• If your Library includes any books eligible to be lent out, they will appear on the shelf of lendable books in the
LendMe section of your Library.
• LendMe badges are present when you are browsing and searching for books in the NOOK Shop on the NOOK.
co.uk website. When you navigate to the Details page of a book by clicking on the title, the badge is located
below the cover image if that book title can be lent.
• LendMe badges are present in your library on the NOOK.co.uk website. If you can lend a book, a LendMe badge
is present below the date added. Click the badge to lend the book.
If you have lent a book, it appears in the list of books you have lent and a "Lent" badge appears on its cover. If you
double-tap on the book to open its details page, you'll see the name of the friend to whom you lent the book.

Lending a Book

To lend a book from your library, do this:
1. Open the LendMe application for the book you want to lend. You can open the LendMe application doing any of
the following:

menu choice.
• In the book itself, tap the centre of the page to bring up the Reading Tools. Tap the More button to
bring up the book's Details page. On the book's details page, tap the Share button. When the Share
dialog box opens, tap the LendMe menu choice.
2. In the dialog box that appears, tap on a social media icon to select the way you want to notify your friend of the
LendMe offer.
• You can notify your friend through email through your Contacts.
• If you have linked your NOOK to your Facebook account, you can notify your friend by posting the
offer on your friend's wall.
• If you have linked your NOOK to your Google account, you can notify your friend through the email
account associated with your Google account.
