Kindle Basics #2: Bookmarking a Page

tags: |

One of my absolute favorite things about the Kindle is that it automatically bookmarks your page for you when you stop reading. Anytime you leave a book or other content by hitting the home button or opening a new page from the menu, the Kindle remembers where you were and opens to it the next time you read that content.

What if you want to bookmark another page? For example, if you and your significant other are both reading the same book. Bookmarking a page on the Kindle is as easy as bookmarking a page in a paper book by folding the corner down. On any content page, use the scroll wheel to select the small triangle in the upper right hand corner of the screen. Click the scroll wheel and you’ll see the small triangle now looks like it was folded down.

If you decide you don’t want that page bookmarked anymore, just follow the same process and the triangle will turn back to how it was.

You can view all your bookmarks by clicking the scroll wheel on Menu and choosing “Go to Bookmark…” This is a great way to mark entire pages that you’d like to reference later. There are other ways to bookmark or highlight smaller passages as well, but we’ll get to those later.
