Configuring the Reader
The Reader is the built-in app that lets you read eBooks on your NOOK.
The Reader settings page presents a checkbox you can select to animate eBook page turns. Tapping on the checkbox
toggles its status from unchecked to checked or from checked to unchecked.
If the box is checked, pages will slide across the screen when you turn pages in an eBook.
Configuring Search
You can customize the Search tool on your NOOK in two ways:
• You can control the type of information included in searches.
• You can clear your history of recent searches.
Configuring the List of Searchable Items
The Search tool on the Quick Nav Bar always searches your Library and the Shop. By default, it also searches
through;
• Apps: the names of other applications, such as Contacts and Chess, that are installed on your NOOK.
• Browser: your Web bookmarks and browser history
• Music: the names of albums, artists, and tracks for all music files (in AAC or MP3 format) on your NOOK
To change the list of items that your NOOK searches through, do this:
1. On the Settings screen, tap Search.
2. On the Search Settings screen, tap Searchable items.
The Searchable items page lists the types of items that your NOOK searches through.
• Web (Web search, bookmarks, and browser history)
• Apps (names of installed applications)
• Library (library of books, magazines, and newspapers)
• Music (artists, albums, and tracks)
• Shop (books, magazines, newspapers, and apps)
3. Tap on the items whose settings you want to change.
• Check the checkbox of any item you want to include in searches.
• Uncheck the checkbox of any item you want to exclude from searches.
NOTE: The Library and Shop choices are grayed out. You cannot unchecked their checkboxes because your
NOOK always searches them.
Your changes take eect right away.
