Subject
[bksvol-discuss] Presentation about Bookshare






Hi you all,  One of my colleagues at work, is unable to do a presentation 
on 
Friday and I was asked to step up and do it.  It is on Bookshare and how 
to 
access the books for students using different types of technology.  If 
anyone has a VR Stream, a Braille+ or an Icon, could you tell me how to 
unpack books and download books from those devices?

Can the Wave read Bookshare books?

I know how to talk about the Braille Sense, braillenotes, and the other 
tools to access books, but not these devices nor do I have some to play 
with, so hoping you all can help me out, smile.

The presentation is on Friday, at the Carroll Center for the Blind.
