Reading an eBook

Your tablet provides several ways to read an eBook. Open the eReading library
to see the applications that have been pre-installed.

LumiRead

The LumiRead application allows you to purchase, store and read books on your
tablet. Tap the LumiRead shortcut in the Application menu, or eReading library,
to open the LumiRead application.

The bookshelves

The contents of your tablet are shown on the screen as a series of bookshelves.
Each book is shown as an image with a name; this image is either defined by
the book or a generic book cover. To change the book cover, tap and hold the
book to see more information.

If you have many books, you can swipe the screen up or down to display more
titles.

Note: Connect your tablet to a computer and add books to the

lumibooks

folder on your tablet’s internal memory or micro SD card to see them on the
LumiRead bookshelves.

Recently read

The first shelf (at the top) displays books you have recently read. This list will
change to reflect your activity.

Favorites / tags

As you add books to your tablet, you may find it difficult to find the book you
need. You may either search for a specific title or author, add books to your
Favorites, or choose only to display books with a certain tag, to reduce the
number of books displayed at one time.
