The book is no longer lendable.

 

"Lend Me" books are lendable once (not once per friend, but once total) for a period of fourteen days.

I'm not sure I understand the question.  After fourteen days, whether friend has finished with the book or not it will become unreadable on his/her NOOK and will be readable on your NOOKColor again.

My friend borrow my book about a month ago and it still does not say lend me. So was you saying after 14days it should say lend me again?

It's never going to say "Lend Me" again, probably, because it isn't lendable any longer.

What Ya_Ya clearly explained is that your book is no longer lendable.

 

A book can only be lent one time, to one person. That person has 7 days to accept or reject your offer. If they accept it, then that friend has 14 days to read it. During either of these time periods, you cannot read it at the same time on your nook.

 

If your offer is not accepted at the end of 7 days, the book returns to your library and is still lendable.

 

But once the offer is accepted and the person opens the book, they have 14 days to read it. After the 14 days expires, whether your friend has finished reading the book or not, the book returns to your library and you can open it again, but it is no longer lendable.

A lifelong reader, now may my life be long enough to catch up on my reading!

Re: Nook Color lend me

I have never lent a book. These instructions were great for when I decide to do so.

1 book

1 friend

1 time

Re: Nook Color lend me

I tried lending a book (that was lendable) and it wouldn't go to her library, nor could she find it in mine.  now it says it's not lendable anymore.  where's the glitch fix for that?
