Chapter 2 Acquiring & Managing Kindle Books

To create a new collection:

1. On the Home screen, press the Menu button.

2. Select Create New Collection.

3. Use the keyboard to type a name for the collection, and then press the keyboard button to

close the keyboard. Navigate to “save” by moving the 5-way controller down, then press the

center of the 5-way controller.

4. On the Home screen, press the center of the 5-way controller to select the collection.

5. Press the Menu button, and then select Add/Remove Items to populate the collection.

You can add or remove items at a later time by pressing on the Menu button when in a

collection and selecting Add/Remove Items. Other options include Rename Collection and

Delete Collection. Note that deleting a collection from your Kindle does not remove the

content stored on your device. Items previously placed into the collection that are stored on

your Kindle will appear on the Home screen after the collection is deleted.

Archiving and deleting content

To free up space on your Kindle, you can archive items by selecting the item’s name on

the Home screen and pressing the Left Arrow on the 5-way controller. Select remove from

device, and press the center of the 5-way controller.

Copies of all your books, recent issues of newspapers and magazines, and personal

documents are archived on Amazon’s servers. If you wish to retrieve content that you’ve

archived, select Archived Items on the Home screen or press the Menu button, and then

select View Archived Items. Use this same method to download previously purchased

content to a new Kindle.

The Manage Your Kindle page on Amazon offers a handy way to view and manage your Kindle

content, settings, and account using a web browser. To learn more, go to www.kindle.com/

support

Periodicals: Older issues of newspapers and magazines are stored on the Home screen in

a collection titled “Periodicals: Back Issues.” Periodicals that are more than seven issues old

will be automatically deleted to free up space for new content. An exclamation point next to

an issue indicates that it will be deleted soon. To keep a copy of an issue, press the Menu

button from within the issue, and select Keep This Issue.
