Getting to Know Your NOOK
Your NOOK is an eReader with a grayscale touchscreen.
On your NOOK, you can:
• Read books, magazines, and newspapers
• Shop over two million titles. Buy books, single issues of magazines and newspapers, as well as subscriptions to
magazines and newspapers
• Store hundreds of books, along with magazines, newspapers, and personal files
• Sample books for free
• Lend, borrow, share, and recommend books to friends via Facebook®, Twitter®, or Google® using Barnes &
Noble’s exclusive LendMe® technology

Your NOOK is small enough to hold easily with one hand and to slip into a bag or a purse. When you turn on Glow-
Light™ on your NOOK, you can read books, magazines, and newspapers even in dim lighting conditions.
