Nook Guide and Tutorials
Tutorials are available on the Nook itself. Turn on the Nook, then select “My Library” from the menu. Scroll through the titles to find “Nook Tour” and “Nook User Guide.” Make your selection and press the circle on the lower right to open.
If the Nook is not responding…
In the rare case that your Nook is not responding, try these steps one at a time to get it fully functioning again:
- Press and hold the power button for 20-seconds and then release. Then press it again to power up your Nook.
- The battery on your Nook may be completely drained. Connect your Nook to a wall outlet using the Nook AC-Adapter and charge your Nook for at least 2 hours.
If those two steps do not work, please call the Main Library 440.255.8811.
Here are a number of video tutorials to help you use the Nook.
