- About the Author
The iBooks app displays all your ebooks as books on a virtual shelf. If you start stuffing iBooks full of ebooks, you may need to scroll down to see the rest of your ebooks.
To open an ebook, follow these steps:
From the Home screen, tap iBooks. The iBooks screen appears, as shown in Figure 19-1.
Tap the Collections button and choose Books or PDFs.
Tap the image of the book that you want to read. Your chosen ebook opens with animation that mimics the opening of a real book.
Flip your iPad to view both landscape and portrait modes. In landscape mode, the ebook appears as two pages. In portrait mode, the ebook appears as one page, as shown in Figure 19-2. (PDF files only appear as a single page in both portrait and landscape mode.)
Tap the screen, and tap Library in the upper-left corner of the screen. The virtual bookshelf screen reappears. You can now choose another book to read.
