A NOOK is an eReader (also called an eBook reader) that is sold by Barnes & Noble.  It's a small, portable device used for reading books in electronc format.  There are different generations of NOOKs.

Where can I borrow one?

NOOKs can be borrowed from the library Service Desk on the second floor of the Baker Commons. See what devices are available.
