  • QuestionCan I download library books

    Asked by Ron1.

    • Answer Hello Ron1 and thank you for your question! Yes, eligible library books are available in the United States through a digital service called OverDrive. You would have to confirm whether your library branch participates and offers Kindle books. If your local library branch participates: -Get a library card and a PIN from your local library. -Go to the website of your local public library and search for "Kindle books" or "eBooks." -At checkout, sign in to your Amazon account and select the device to which you want to send the book. -Connect your device to Wi-Fi and download the title from the Archived Items or Cloud. Some titles may require USB transfer from your computer to your supported device. Hope this helps! Have a great day!

  • QuestionDoes this new Kindle allow for immersion reading? Where if you download a KU book with the audiobook, will it will highlight the ebook and listen to the audio at the same time while it highlights the text? Amazon rep says yes but I can’t tell.

    Asked by JellyJubilee.

    • Answer So if the book is coming from kindle unlimited with the included audiobook it would work? That’s what I use on my phone but prefer to read on the paperwhite screen. I got the colorsoft and it doesn’t allow the immersion reading. I don’t purchase the audiobooks and ebooks but rather consume them together when offered on KU. I’m really sad the colorsoft doesn’t have the option.
