You use the Apple Books app to read or listen to items you download from the Book Store. But like Apple's Photos and iTunes apps, Books is an organizing tool, too. All of your ebooks, audiobooks, and PDFs are automatically organized into various standard collections, such as Audiobooks and Finished. But you can create your own collections that make it easier to keep your virtual bookshelves in order.

How to add a new collection

The Apple Books app includes some default collections. You can add to these as many collections as you want and define them however you like. For example, you can create a collection for a particular author, genre, or topic. And you can put the same book into multiple collections. Here's how:

  1. Tap the Library tab.
  2. Tap Collections.
  3. Scroll to the bottom of the list of collections and tap New Collection.
  4. Type a name for the collection.
  5. Tap Done.

How to add books to a collection

  2. Tap Edit.
  3. Tap the book(s) the you want to add to a collection.
  4. Tap Add to....
  5. Tap the collection to add the books to.

You can use this same process to add a book that is already in one collection to another collection.

How to reorder or delete collections

Maybe you have a long list of collections and you'd like to put a particular one near the top of the list. Or maybe you want to delete a collection. You can do both in Books.

  1. Tap Library.
  2. Tap Collections.
  3. Tap Edit.
  4. To move a collection, touch and hold the gripper and drag the collection up or down to its new location.
  5. To delete a collection, tap the delete button.

  2. Touch and hold any book until it lifts off the screen. A darker shadow will appear behind the book.

How to re-download deleted books

You've done a great job keeping your virtual bookshelves neat and tidy. You've meticulously organized your collections and gotten rid of books that you've finished. And now you want to go back and re-read a book that you've deleted from your device.

Fortunately, Apple Books makes it easy to do that, whether or not an image of the book's cover remains visible in the app or not. Let me explain.

Redownload a book that is visible in your library

The Books app can continue to show the cover image of a book that you've deleted from your device.

Even though the book has been removed, the small cloud icon underneath the image of the book's cover means that it's among the list of books that you've downloaded from the Book Store...and it can be redownloaded from the Book Store with one tap.

  1. Tap the Library tab. Alternatively, if the book appears in a collection, you could look for it there.
  2. Tap the book you want to re-download.

Redownload a book that is not visible in your library

You don't have to allow cover images of deleted books to remain visible in your library. You can easily hide books after you've deleted them from your device. But to redownload a hidden book, you'll need to unhide it first.

  1. Tap the Reading Now tab.
  2. Tap the account icon. It's either your picture or your initials and it's located in the upper right-hand corner of the screen.
  3. Tap Manage Hidden Purchases and enter your Apple ID password if prompted.
  4. Scroll to find the book you want and tap Unhide to make it visible in your library.
  5. Tap Account.
  6. Tap Done.
  7. Tap the Library tab.
  8. Tap the newly unhidden book to download it.
