Reading with the XO

Read books from the library.

Read Activity

Your XO laptop contains a library that offers many interesting reading materials in many languages. These books are sometimes called ebooks for electronic books, and Portable Document Format or PDF files work well. You might like to flip the laptop display so that it lays flat while reading ebooks.

  1. To use the reader, use the Browse Activity to download the .xo file from wiki.laptop.org.
  2. When the .xo file has downloaded, save it to your Journal.
  3. Go to your Journal, click on the Read.xo file. and click the Resume icon. The Read Activity should now be installed.
