    Abstract: In some implementations, a device displays a user interface that provides supplemental information in connection with a digital work. For example, the supplemental information may include a listing of objects identified in the digital work. Further, a visual representation may be displayed with each listed object. The visual representation for each listed object may provide a representation of at least one location of at least one occurrence of the object in the digital work. The objects may be displayed according to a supplemental information view, a page view, a chapter view, a book view, a series view, a library view, or the like. Additionally, one or more object buttons may be displayed concurrently with the listing of objects. The object buttons may correspond to the types of objects displayed, and may be selected to limit the displayed objects to a particular type.

    Abstract: In some examples, a computing device may receive an indication that a first user and a second user are located in a zone of an interior space or other surrounding environment. Settings of one or more controllable devices may be controlled based on user profiles including implicit or explicit user preferences, such as for controlling lighting, ambient temperature, entertainment, security, etc., in the zone. When there is conflict between the user preferences, the conflict may be resolved, such as by determining a hierarchy between the users, by averaging the preferred settings, or based on other techniques. Further, a portable computing device may be associated with a user and may provide sensor information. The sensor information may include biometric sensor information that is indicative of a bodily condition of the user and that can be used for determining a context of the user or the zone.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a first user associated with a first user account may send a request to exchange digital libraries with a second user associated with a second user account. Upon acceptance, the second user receives first library information associated with the first user account that identifies content items that may be accessed by the second user due to the exchange. Similarly, the first user receives second library information associated with the second user account that identifies second content items that may be accessed by the first user. In other examples, a user may access the digital library of a selected person or entity, such as a historical figure, celebrity, author, friend, or organization. Additionally, in some cases, a user may view content of a content item that a selected person is currently reading, and which may include annotations made to the content item by the selected person.

    Abstract translation: 在一些实施方式中,与第一用户帐户相关联的第一用户可发送与第二用户相关联的第二用户交换数字图书馆的请求。 接受后,第二用户接收与第一用户帐户相关联的第一图书馆信息,其识别由于交换而可能由第二用户访问的内容项目。 类似地,第一用户接收与第二用户帐户相关联的第二库信息,其识别可由第一用户访问的第二内容项。 在其他示例中,用户可以访问所选个人或实体的数字图书馆,例如历史人物,名人,作者,朋友或组织。 另外,在一些情况下,用户可以查看所选择的人正在阅读的内容项目的内容,并且可以包括由所选择的人对内容项目做出的注释。
