About the Outline
NOOK Tablet: The Missing Manual is divided into eight parts, each of which has
several chapters:
• Part 1, The Basics , covers everything you need to know about using the
NOOK as an eReader and a tablet. It gives you a guided tour of the hard-
ware, shows you how to set up the NOOK so it works just the way you like,
and then shows you how to use it for the first time. By the time you finish
you’ll be a pro.
• Part 2, Reading Books, Newspapers, and Magazines , shows you every-
thing you need to know about reading using your NOOK. You’ll become an
instant expert at using all of its remarkable reading tools, including using
bookmarks and notes, changing font and text size, and searching inside
books and publications. And it also has an entire chapter devoted to kids’
books, including how you can record your voice reading a book to your
children.

Part 3,
Buying, Borrowing, and Managing Your Library
, covers how to
buy books, newspapers, and magazines, and then track them in your own
personal library. You’ll find out how to find what you want to buy fast and
get the lowdown about it, and then keep track of everything in a customiz-
able library. And you’ll also see how you can borrow books from friends,
and lend to them as well—and how you can borrow books for free from the
library.
• Part 4, Apps, Movies, TV Shows, Music, Photographs, and Files lets you
take advantage of many of the NOOK’s most remarkable features. You’ll
see how to find, download, install and use thousands of apps, and get
recommendations for some of the best ones on the planet. You’ll also see
how you can watch movies and TV shows, as well as listen to streaming
Internet radio stations—or play your own music collection. Also included
is how to transfer files to your NOOK, and how to use the NOOK’s built-in
music player.
