Your NOOK features a high-resolution 6-inch E Ink touchscreen for easy navigation and page turns.
NOTE: To ensure the highest quality of reading imaginable, NOOK Simple Touch™ with GlowLight™ has an
anti-glare, screen protector already installed. The use of any additional screen protectors may damage
the device and will void the warranty.
Page-Turn Buttons
Built into the black frame on either side of the E Ink touchscreen display are two narrow buttons for paging forward
and backward in books and periodicals. You can also use the buttons for scrolling up and down lists and shelves in the
Library and Shop.
By default, the upper button on each side of the screen turns the page backward, and the lower button turns the
page forward. You can change these settings on the Reader settings screen, which you can access through the Settings
button on the Quick Nav Bar.
These buttons also can be used to scroll through scrollable pages in the Library and the Shop. Press either of the
lower page-turn buttons to scroll down. Press either of the upper page-turn buttons to scroll up.
