: In the states, you can sign up for web braille through NLS. I don't know if : web braille works with the braille note, but was getting ready to find out. : You have to go through your regional talking book library to sign up. : : Sherry : email and MSN messenger: : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : : -----Original Message----- : From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] : [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Van Der Walt : Riana : Sent: Friday, July 23, 2004 4:07 AM : To: Khalid; Braillenote List : Subject: RE: [Braillenote] reading books : : : Khalid, You should download books in brf or txt format, as the bn cannot : handle daisy format. You can also download bookshare zipped files, but : then you must either unzip it on your pc before transferring it to the : bn, or rename the zipped file on the bn to have a bks extension, to : unpack with the bookshare utility, which is installed on your bn. You : could also download txt or zipped books from the Gutenberg site, but : then rather unzip them on the pc. You can also download from the : Braille.org site. : : I believe you require membership and in some cases specific citizenship : to download from other sites, but perhaps someone in the States can : comment on that. : : Regards : Riana : : : -----Original Message----- : From: Khalid [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] : Sent: 23 July 2004 09:04 : To: Braillenote List : Subject: [Braillenote] reading books : : Hi all, : I would like to have full detail in how to download books from : bookshare to put them in my BrailleNote.
