Adding Other Materials

If you are interested in adding additional items to a Kindle including books, newspapers and magazines you can register the Kindle to your own Amazon account while borrowing it. Please note that the Kindle will be reset once returned but you will continue to have access to any items you purchase by downloading the Kindle app for your computer or mobile device.
