Adding Library Items, Bookmarked Web Pages, or Widgets to the Home Screen
Your NOOK automatically adds the items you have recently purchased or accessed to the Active Shelf on your
Home Screen. This makes them easy to find.
You can also place other items on the Home Screen for convenient access. These items can include Library content
such as books, movies, and apps. They can also include bookmarked Web pages and Widgets (special applications)
such as calendars, clocks, and audio players.
To add an item to the Home Screen, do this:
1. Press and hold on the background of the Home Screen.
The shortcuts menu appears, presenting five tabs of content: Library, Apps, Wallpapers, Bookmarks, and Wid-
gets.
2. Tap the menu choice for the type of item you want to add.
Your NOOK displays further choices below. If you see a stack of items like books, tap on the stack to display all
the items individually in a row.
3. To place an item on the Home Screen, drag it from the shortcuts menu onto the Home Screen.
4. When you have finished adding items, tap the Done button at the bottom of the screen.
