Home Screen
The Home screen gives you easy access to the books and periodicals you
have recently read or purchased.
In the top portion of the screen, you’ll see the covers of the most recent
books or periodicals you’ve been reading.
The New & Recent Shelf
At the top of the Home screen, the New & Recent panel shows the covers
of the books or periodicals you have most recently purchased or were most
recently reading. If you have not read a book or periodical yet, the New &
Recent panel shows the cover of the NOOK User Guide or NOOK Quick
Guide. These two guides are automatically included in your Library.
To open any book or periodical shown in the New & Recent panel, tap its
cover.
The Recommended for You Shelf
At the bottom of the screen, you’ll see a shelf with book recommendations
for you. The recommendations are based on your recent purchases.
To learn more about a particular book or periodical, tap the cover. Your
NOOK opens a detailed description of the book, including an overview, a
list of reviews, a list of related titles, and a button for purchasing the book
or periodical. The details page of a book might also include a button for
downloading a free sample.
The picture below shows an example of a details page about a
recommended book.
