The Nook
 
I am trying a Nook e-reader. Just started a book I know I have already read. Is there a way to delete this book.

I have a Kindle. I don't know if this will work but all I do is touch and hold the picture of the book and a window pops open asking if i want to delete, move to favorites, or move from bookshelf. On Kindle the book is never deleted, it goes to Amazon cloud drive to be retrieved if I ever want it again.

On my Nook Color I have to attach it to the computer and delete that way.

You should be able to "archive" directly from your nook. I don't know what model you have (I have 2 and you access them differently). If you can't find it on the nook you can do it from your library on the computer at http://www.barnesandnoble.com , sign in and go to "my nook", then "manage library". You can either "archive" which greys it out on your nook, or delete it if you never want to see it again. Archiving will help you not buy the same book twice, but will also take up space on your nook. So far I haven't had to delete anything and I've had mine over 2 years. Good luck & Merry Christmas!!!

Oh, I forgot to add, you will need to turn your wireless on after doing it on the computer in order for your account changes to update on your nook.

On mine it is under "item details and options". You have to be in your library and hi lighting the one you want to delete. go to item details and options and hit delete. Clear as mud?

Happy Holidays everyone. :)

All you do is press on the picture on the home page and the choices will come up and press delate...

Each version of the Nook is different so might be that you will have to read your manual or go to BN site to find out how to delete. :)

You can archive it and then the next time you sync with B n N it will go into the archive file in case you ever want to loan it out or download it again. Once you are online and want it deleted you can delete it from the library. The good thing about archiving is that it lets you keep a copy just in case but won't download again like it would if it was in the reqular library. I have the Nook 3g and the Nook Color and love them both.
