I am trying to borrow a book from my city library. The site does mention that its ebooks are compatible with the Nook.

How do I buy ebooks from kobobooks.com, webscription.com, ebooks.com? Other posters mentioned that the are compatible with nook.

Note: I have tried getting a free ebook in kobobooks.com but it stays within "My library" in my kobo account. I can't get it to move to "My Library" in the nook. This would mean that I need WiFi each time I'd want to read that particular book.

I am trying not to get frustrated but this Nook seems to have a huge learning curve...is it because I'm no techie or is it really hard to go the run arounds with B&N??? Help, pls!!!!
ATDrake pretty much answered all of your questions.

All I know is that whereever I get my ebooks from (Kobo, library, amazon, etc...) I always download the epub file directly to my computer. I used to have to convert it with mobipocket before putting it on my phone, but now with the Nook I just add to Calibre (there is a forum here for the program) because I like to edit the metatags, and then I plug the usb into my Nook and send it via Calibre.
