What Happens When You Buy an Item in the Shop?
When you buy a book, magazine, or newspaper on your NOOK, it begins downloading right away. Here’s what hap-
pens:
• The item appears in your Library.
• A badge saying “New” appears on item’s cover. This badge will disappear once you open the item.
• If an item is still in the process of downloading, a progress bar appears on its cover, indicating the amount of
content that remains to be downloaded.
• The item appears in the New Reads list on the Home screen.
Using Your Wishlist
Your Wishlist is like a shopping cart on your NOOK. You can add books, magazines, and newspapers to your
Wishlist so you can buy them later.
NOTE: The Wishlist on your NOOK is separate from the Wishlist on the BN.com Web site. Your Wishlist on
BN.com can include paper books and other items, as well as NOOK books, magazines, and newspapers
for your NOOK.
