NB is a specific feature of that flagship model e reader ONLY.

AFAIK you cannot do that on any other Kobo
also, various workarounds have been tried using browsers on e-ink devices but don't work

so if you have an e-ink Kobo, which is not an Aura ONE, you have to use a PC as an intermediate device to license and move the epub.

If you have an e-ink device which also runs android apps, then you may be able to install libby, from google play store, but books borrowed via libby have to be read in libby- you can't opt to read them in a different app on your device.

That's not too bad - libby has features to let you tweak how it looks and behaves, as a reader. I use the custom preferences, with maximum line height, & 2 pages in landscape mode layout. It syncs well between my different tablets
