And the books from open library aren't audio books. The bard app has no tts to read them.

Hi,

I'm sure those books won't play with the BARD app. When you download a book from BARD, the final step bARD Mobile takes is to download an authorization key for that book. Since Open Library doesn't have these keys, it can't give them to BARD Mobile, so there's no way for BARD Mobile to decrypt the books.

Best,
Anna

Hi, all.
As I'm sure most know, the internet archive, through its
openlibrary.org site, provides a significant number of books for free
download. Most are out of copyright, but quite a large number, several
hundred thousand, I think, are still in copyright. These are Daisy books
specifically designed for accessibility and are encrypted using the Library
Of Congress encryption system, the same system used to encrypt books which
are downloaded from BARD. I'm wondering if the newly released BARD app can
read these books. Has anyone tried these books, if I may ask, and what have
the results been?
Thanks.
Aman
