Books are there but I can't find them

New user of the Simple touch.   Long time user of the Nook Classic.  My primary reading source is the library, and I used the Nook classic to read books I'd downloaded from Overdrive.

 

Bought the Simple Touch today.  Dragged and dropped 3 library books.  Go to library, and only see books downloaded from B&N.  I can search by title or author for the sideloaded books, and they're all there.  But, I don't see an option to "go to My Documents" like I previously had on my Classic.

 

Where is this option, or what is the mechanism to find sideloaded content?  Please help.  I've browsed the entire thread on non-B&N content, and everybody has problems, but I can't find this particular problem.

 

Thanks,.

 

Janet

Re: Books are there but I can't find them

On the NST, all the books are together in the "library", so there's no separate library area for sideloaded content.

 

When you search for them, and they come up, what happens when you open one?  If your library is sorted by most recent, the most recently opened book should appear at the top of page 1.

Re: Books are there but I can't find them

sometimes my nook will occasionally have that issue with sideloaded material.  I just connect to wi-fi and hit the sync button at the top of the library page, and that usually brings up any sideloaded material that has been added recently.
