7. Borrowing and Lending Books with Lend... > Lending a Book
There are two ways you can lend a book to someone—offering to lend it on your own, because you think someone may want to read it, or by responding to a friend’s request to borrow a book. The following sections cover both scenarios.
Let’s say you’ve just read Dickens’ Nicholas Nickleby for the first (or seventh) time and you have a friend who you know will enjoy the book. You’d like to recommend and lend the book to her.
There are three—count ’em, three—ways you can get to a screen that lets you lend a book to a NOOK Friend. Here’s how to get to the screen, and what to do once you get there:
-
Launch the NOOK Friends app (Getting Started with NOOK Friends) and tap the LendMe button. Then tap any book in the My Lendable Books section. A screen appears that lets you send an offer to lend the book via Contacts or Facebook. If you choose Contacts, a screen appears that lets you select your contact and type a message to her. The offer is sent via email. Your friend can then click a link in the email to accept or decline the offer.
