Nancy, I have downloaded from Gutenberg with the bn and find it the quickest way to go to the page: 'find an ebook, from there choose from the alphabetic list per author or title, then from the relevant book's link, enter and you'll be taken to a page reflecting the book information and available download formats. almost all books are available in both txt and zipped txt format, so choose what you want, but I always download the zipped files, as they are less than half the size than the Ascii ones and usually can be unzipped on the bn. I always download directly to a cf card when using the bn.

Has anyone successfulky downbboaded any of these books onto a storage, compact flash, o! microdrive successfully? I'd prefer to get the "text files" and I'm wondering if they'll download automatically, or must I create a "bks extension? If anyone has used this, would he or she let me know how this is done? I haven't tried it yet, and it's not as if I don't have anything to read, grin. I've downloaded hundreds of web braille and Bookshare books onto storage cards. Thanks to Rhonda and Maria, I'm now proficient with the Online catalog of Web Braille. Hip-hip horray! Thanks for the great list.
