ePub files can be transferred to the various e-readers using the instructions below. ePub is essentially a .zip file that contains a collection of text files and images. Please note: If your epub downloads as a zip file, you will need to change the extension. Do not attempt to extract the file. Follow these instructions to change the extension:
Click on the zip file once to "highlight" it. Click on it again so that you can manipulate the file name. Delete the letters zip after the period and type epub. Hit enter or okay. If a pop-up window asks you if you are sure you want to change the extension, hit yes. You will now have an epub file.
