Selecting a Library
When searching for a book, RealSam defaults to the last library you used, however it will offer you other options if its search comes up empty. If you have never read a book, RealSam will offer you all libraries.
The quickest way to select a library, use the word from. For example you could say List Books about Magic from Torch Trust.
Torch Trust
You can read Christian literature from the Torch Trust for free, however the first time you select from their library, you will be asked to accept their Terms & Conditions which includes passing on your name, email address and postcode.
Librevox
Books from this library are in the public domain & are included by default on RealSam . They may have lower quality audio recordings, and a mixture of narrators.
Your Personal List
The first source offered is your personal list of recently chosen books. The recent books option allows you to choose from a list of books that you have recently been reading, without having to search for them again. To get to this list you can say, Go to my recent books, or you can select number one from the book sources list. When you select a book from the recent books list, RealSam will continue reading it at the same place that you were up to.
