Free E-Books for your Kindle or Nook - Class

Posted in

Are you struggling to make heads or tails of your new Kindle or Nook?  Or, maybe you’ve heard about the free e-books that are available from the Ripon Public Library, but haven’t gotten the hang of it yet.  Either way, the library is here to help.  First, on Saturday, February 4th, our resident “e-book expert” will be on hand to answer your basic questions about e-readers and library services – just stop in any time from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and again from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.  For more in-depth help, the library will offer classes that walk you through the checkout process for both Kindle and Nook e-readers.  The first of these classes, which will be free and open to the public, will be held Tuesday, February 7th at 10:00 a.m. and again on Wednesday, February 8th at 6:00 p.m.  Bring your e-reader and laptop to follow along.

Please contact the library (920) 748-6160 or Ben Sprague (sprague@riponlibrary.org) with any questions.

Check out our Nooks!

You can now borrow Barnes & Noble Nook eReaders from the Ripon Public Library!  To check availability or place a hold on either a Nook Simple Touch or Nook Color eReader, search your library catalog for the title "Ripon nook," or use these handy direct links:

There are currently more than 50 titles - from current best-sellers to classics, nonfiction and even children's books  -  pre-loaded and ready-to-read on each Nook.  Most titles can be turned into large print titles by changing the text size on screen.  The Nook Color also includes fun, interactive children's books with animations and a "read to me" features where the device will read the story out loud! 

Please note: you must be 18 or older to check out a Nook.

For more information about checking out Nooks, please stop in or contact the library.  For details on the Nook eReaders, and how to use them, check out the links below.  Please note: the following links will take you to the Barnes & Noble website.
