    To start, open your Nook library — the menu where your books and other documents are displayed.

    On a Nook tablet, you can press the button that looks like an upside down "U" at any time to access the navigation bar.

    Once you do this, click "Library" to access your library.

    On smartphones, the quickest way to get to your library can vary.

    For instance, on iOS, if you're reading a book, you can tap the middle of the screen to display the tools menu, then tap the option in the top left to get to your library.On Android, you can use the same approach or simply hit the back button.
  2. Step 2: Tap and hold the book you would like to archive.

    Next, scroll through the list of books and find the first book in your library that you'd like to archive.

    Tap on it and hold down.

    A menu of options should appear.

    You may release your hold when this list shows up. , Clicking this will remove the selected book from your device, freeing up space for different books.
