how do I remove my Play books from my device but keep them in my Google library?

[AC Question]

how do I remove my Play books from my device but keep them in my Google library? It's eating up a lot of storage on my Android phone but I would like to still keep the option to open it on my tablet, and not lose my books.

When you're looking at your library in the Play Books app, tap the 3-dot menu on the book you want to remove ant tap 'remove download'.
