Adding More Books
There are four
ways by which you can add new books:
A] Adding New Books from within the Library:
1) After you upgrade to
the latest edition, as shown in the above steps, open the library. Click on the
menu item “ترقية حية”
then click the submenu item “ترقية البرنامج والكتب الآن“.
1)
A dialog box should come up. If there is internet connection, it
should search for new program upgrade and new books. If there are any new
books, it should show them as checkbox items. Choose the items that you want
and click “تحميل تلقائي” to
begin downloading them from within the library.
2)
After you begin downloading the book(s) you chose, wait until
the download finishes.
4) After the download is finished, restart the library and the
new books should be added to the library.

B] Downloading New Books from Shamela.ws:

2) Choose a category of books. Then choose the book you want to
download. You can also search by book title or author name. The books are in
(.bok) format that is recognized by the library. However, what you download is
compressed in a zip archive. So, after you download, extract the content of the
zip archive to get the (.bok) file.

3) Now go open the
library itself. Click the menu item “شاشات” then click the submenu item “استيراد ملفات“.

4) A new window should
appear. Browse to the location where you extracted the new book in (.bok)
format. Click on the book (or books) you want to import, and drag it over to
the bottom list. Then click the lightning icon at
the bottom-right side of the screen whose comment reads “استيراد الكتب إلى البرنامج“.

5) After that, a confirmation message should come up telling you
that the import was successful.
