Amazon – How to send a Kindle book to the Amazon cloud reader

I've been filtering my book searches by Kindle Edition and Prime Eligible and, so far, the search results have all been available in lending library.

The filters appear on the left sidebar after you search in the Books department.

For example, to see the filters, select Books under All Departments in the Search drop-down list at the top of the Amazon home page. Enter some search terms and click the GO button or just click the GO button without any search terms.

Then select the Kindle Edition and Prime Eligible checkbox filter options located down along the left side of the page. Note that you have to have signed-up for Prime Eligible membership to see this filter option.

I don't use an iPad so I can't be sure, but if I haven't ticked the 'archive document in your kindle library' then the document doesn't get sent to the cloud.

So the only copy you need to delete is the one on your iPad.
