Thanks, Richard, for posting this. I read the release notes prior to
downloading BARD Express, but I knew I'd need to refer to the material
again.

BARD Express Release
NLS is pleased to announce the release of BARD Express, version
3.0.0.7. This release includes the long-awaited BARD Express Player,
which allows patrons to choose an audio book or magazine from their
BARD Express bookshelf and listen to it directly on their PC.
Much like BARD Mobile, the BARD Express Player allows users to adjust
the narration speed; jump to navigation points such as part, chapter,
and article; create bookmarks; and much more. Users can also create
global settings for narration speed, auto-play, auto-rewind, and more.
Patrons using JAWS and NVDA can either use the tab key to move to each
of the player's functions or tap a single letter assigned to that
function. For example, they can type F for fast forward, R for rewind,
and B for bookmarks. A complete list of commands can be found under
the BARD Express Help menu.
Scripts are built into the 2024 version of JAWS to optimize the BARD
Express Player. Patrons using JAWS 2022 or 2023 can download the same
scripts from the BARD Express page on the NLS website and import them
into their screen readers.
We recommend reading Section 7 of the BARD Express user guide, which
is dedicated to the BARD Express Player to familiarize yourself with
the new player. The user guide can be found on the BARD Express page
on the NLS website:
