It has to be straightforward, and replace the books my Mom would get from the library, otherwise, it's a paperweight.

Sometimes things just have to work... this does not, not at all, and I am in a bit of a panic since my goal was to load the Nook up with books, show her how to do it, and be confident she can manage w/o undo hassles.

Fool me once...
Slow down and read what people said, they are trying to help you. Take the battery out, put it back in, leave it on charge for a day without doing anything. THEN see if it still has issues.

A Kindle will do you no good as it cannot read the format that most libraries use.
