4. Type the text of the note.
5. Tap the Post button to close the editing window and post the Note.
The Note window with the keyboard disappears. In your book, an icon now appears in the margin, indicat-

Viewing a Note
To open a note and read it, tap the Note icon in the margin.
When you’re done viewing the note, you can close the Note window by tapping the X in the upper right corner of
the window.
NOTE: By default, your NOOK is configured to display a Note icon next to any passage of text about which
you’ve written a note. However, you can configure your NOOK not to display Notes icons. If you have
configured the Reader not to display Note icons, you can still read, edit, and remove notes. Tap the
center of the page to display the Reading Tools. In the Reading Tools menu, tap the Contents item, and
then tap the Notes & Highlights tab. Select any note for viewing.
Editing a Note
To edit a note, do this:
1. Tap the Note icon to open the note you want to edit.
Your NOOK displays the note, along with buttons labeled Cancel and Edit.
2. In the Note window, tap the Edit button.
A window opens, displaying the text of the note and a keyboard.
3. Use the keyboard to edit the note as you like.
4. When you have finished editing the note, tap the Post button.
Changing the Color of a Highlighted Passage
To change the color of highlighting used for a note, do this:
1. Tap on a highlighted word or phrase in the passage associated with the note.
A pop-up menu appears.
2. Tap the highlighting color you want to use: blue, green, yellow.
Your NOOK highlights the passage in the color you selected.
NOTE: If you tap on the word, and a bubble opens above it, showing the word in larger type, then you’re hold-
ing your finger on the screen too long when you tap. To open the pop-up menu for a note, tap quickly
on the word, rather than holding your finger on the screen.
