How to Mark a Book as “Currently Reading”

1: Click the checkbox beside the book you want to mark “Currently Reading”.

2: Change the status from “Read” to “Currently Reading”.

3: You can now see books marked “Currently Reading” under your avatar, and if you input the date you started reading the book, that will display as well.

You can remove a book from the Currently Reading section by changing the status, or selecting “Remove Status / Rating”.


Pause Button:


We also offer the ability to hit “Pause” on a book that you are currently reading.

An example of when this could be used: you have a book out of the library, don’t quite finish it, but have to return it, and other people have it on hold.

You can select the “Paused” option. The book will display that status across the site, and you can see a list of all paused books in My Library.

When you are ready to resume, simply change your status to “Currently Reading”.
