No, because they wouldn't have been converted to the DAISY format, so you couldn't navigate them in anything close to a logical manner.

However, the most common problem is NFB Newsline not getting them transferred to BookShare. The next most common problem is that the Newspaper itself doesn't send NFB Newsline the files, in which case it doesn't matter if you get them via e-mail or try getting them from BookShare. For example, the Oregonian often doesn't send them the Sunday newspaper until Monday or Tuesday. Isn't that useful. And, as in today again, NFB Newsline is apparently having trouble transferring the New York Times Sunday. At least, it was there at 8:00 AM Pacific Time.

I say this because I have heard that there is some problem with the papapers. Do you get them in email? I'd rather get them via rss or the web.

As long as the person is already a Newsline subscriber, you can fill out the form at the following link and you will start getting the newspapers via e-mail once they've verified your eligibility. https://nfbnewsline.net/Nl2/NL2NewUserReqInput.jsp Enjoy, Richard --- -----Original Message----- From: icon-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:icon-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of james h Sent: Friday, August 24, 2007 2:10 PM To: icon-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [icon-discuss] Re: newspapers and how would you go about that. ----- Original Message ----- From: "tré strother" <strother_r@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <icon-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, August 24, 2007 9:07 AM Subject: [icon-discuss] Re: newspapers I know this is probably a more tedious process, but what you might try is to sign up for Daisy newspapers to be sent to you through email. That way, if the bookshare thing isn't working, you'll have something to fall back on. -----Original Message----- From: icon-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:icon-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of james h Sent: Friday, August 24, 2007 8:52 AM To: icon-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [icon-discuss] newspapers i know it was talked about last week in terms of not geting papers is it a newsline issue or bookshare? and who if anyone should we contact. tried to get my denver post this morning no go<gtrin> David Poehlman poehlman1@xxxxxxxxxxx
