In trying to carry out your suggestion, I've found a number of books which won't delete. I keep touching the delete and it highlights but the message box for delete or cancel doesn't come up. Could this be because the reader is trying to index them?

Update: I managed to delete books one by one, doing a nonsense search after each one and noting the ones which had an effect on the indexing count. There were 8 books which seem to have been affected, some of them ones which I've paid for, rather than freebies or PD. What do I do now? Put them on one at a time?

Oh, I think the problem with the deleting was the battery. Soon after typing the first part of this message I had a low battery warning, as soon as I put the reader on the charger I could delete books.
