# Cloud Collections on Kindle E-Readers

You can organize the content on your Kindle into custom categories that are stored in the Cloud by using Cloud Collections.

Cloud Collections are supported on Kindle Paperwhite (5th Generation), any Kindle e-reader model 6th generation and newer, and 3rd generation and newer Fire tablets. See Which Kindle E-reader Do I Have? if you're not sure which Kindle e-reader model you're using.

You can add as many items as you like to each collection, including books, active content (if supported), and personal documents. Newspapers, magazines, and blogs cannot be added to Cloud Collections.

- To create a new collection:
  1. From Home, select the Menu icon, and then select Create New Collection.
  2. Enter a name for the collection, and then tap OK.
  3. Select the checkbox next to a title to add it to the collection.
  4. Tap Done when you're finished. The new collection appears on the Home screen.
- To edit or delete a collection:
  1. From Home, press and hold the collection title.
  2. Tap to Add/Remove Items, Rename, Remove from device, or Delete.

Important: Deleting a collection does not delete any of the content stored on your device or in Your Kindle Library. After a collection is deleted, the items that were in it appear on the Home screen if you sort items by Collections.
