Adobe® DRM
Adobe provides a form of copy protection called "Adobe® Digital Rights
Management", also known as "Adobe® DRM". If you buy or borrow an eBook
that is protected with this form of DRM, you will have to register with Adobe®
and acquire an Adobe® ID. You can do this quite quickly and easily at
www.adobe.com/go/digital-editions-createID
Then you register your Adobe® ID with your tolino eReader and can enjoy your
book.
By the way: If you borrow an eBook from a public lending library you will also
need Adobe® DRM, which ensures that the lending period is adhered to. Once
this period is over, you can no longer open the eBook and will have to borrow it
again.
eBooks on your tolino eReader will rarely use Adobe® DRM copy protection. But
if you do want to open an eBook that is protected by Adobe® DRM, you will
receive a notification and be prompted to enter your Adobe® ID.
Library link
Sometimes, you may have bought one book from one bookseller's shop and
another book from a different bookseller. In order to see both books in your
library, you'll have to link your libraries.
Our recommendation: If you share your tolino eReader with another family
member and each of you has bought books in a different shop, we suggest
that you link the libraries.
