Reading a Newspaper
Reading a newspaper is just as easy as reading a book. You even have access to the same Reading Tools that you use
when reading books.
Recent issues of newspapers appear on your Daily Shelf, as well as in the Newspapers section of your Library.
Opening a Newspaper
To open a newspaper, tap on its cover.
Reading a Newspaper
When you first open a newspaper, it displays its Front Page, a long scrollable page that includes headlines and a para-
graph or two from each major article. To read any of these articles, tap on its headline or its copy.
When you are reading an article, you can navigate as though you were reading a book.

To turn to the next page, do any of the following:
• Tap along the right edge of the screen.
• Swipe your finger from right to left across the screen.
• Swipe your finger from low to high on the screen.
Turning to the Previous Page
To turn to the previous page, do any of the following:
• Tap along the left edge of the screen.

Accessing Reading Tools
Tap in the center of the page to call up the Reading Tools, which include:
• Contents, featuring a table of contents along with notes, highlights, and bookmarks.
• Search, a search tool for searching throughout the issue you’re reading.
• Share, a social media tool for sharing recommendations, ratings and reviews, and reading status with friends.
• Text, which include tools for customizing font size, margins, line spacing, etc.
• Brightness, controls for making the screen brighter or dimmer.
The Reading Tools also include a slider that lets you scroll quickly through the newspaper. As you drag your finger
along the slider, section titles and page numbers appear in a bubble so you can quickly find the page you want.
