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.
