Nook downloads / Cyber classes

How about having one of the classes out at the Falcon Library. Since PPLD loaned out NOOKS, that was what I purchased, and was VERY DISAPPOINTED to find out how difficult it was to get set-up and do (which I haven't done, since the instructions are so intimidating!!!!)

You are so right, there are

You are so right, there are many steps to follow to set up your Nook or any other electronic device. And, it can be very intimidating. We have created a display with instructions, but it is not enough since you can’t ask questions. At the High Prairie library we have been concentrating in offering beginner computer classes since that is our highest demand. I will arrange to have a Cybershelf class at the High Prairie library in the next couple of months. Please watch our website or library newsletter for the date and time. Thank you for your suggestion.

Downloading E-shelf books to a Nook

Hi!

The B & N at Chapel Hills provided me a single sheet with simple instructions on downloading e-books from the library. I'm technologically challenged, but found them very easy and totally unintimidating to follow. Will post as soon as I can, but in the meantime I suggest Nook users contact them. The store has been a great resource and they also offer free classes on "Nook-use".

Best of luck!
