				Deleting books
			 
			
			Well I found that you now can delete books directly in the Library (furthest down on the menu, you need to scroll) What's a bit irritating is the only way I've found to mark a book for deletion is to tap it. The if course it opens and I have to go back to the library. Is there a less round-about way to do this?

			I noticed the same. I do not know an alternative way either.

			That is very annoying.  On the Orizon you could use the up/down buttons to select a book.

			Apparently on the Odyssey you can use the side buttons, but they just move left/right, and I am not able to get them work for up/down. The net effect is that you cannot "select & delete" any book. You must tap on it first (i.e., open it), then return to the library and then you can select "Delete" from the menu. |

			Thanks, that's what I though.

			Just in case: the best workaround is to access the library through the explorer when the device is USB-connected and manage (and delete) the files this way. But I am aware that this was not the initial question!

			I think they should make it so that if you touch a book in the library for (maybe) two seconds, it would select it and bring up the menu.

			So does anyone want to ask Bookeen about this?
