What Copyright!? The law permits a blind person to have alternative format and
the book is not transferable.

Hi all,
The cork city Library has been using Overdrive for EBooks and Audiobooks
for
some years now and all is free. It is a little slow but works fine and
you
can move the downloaded audiobooks to any device you want. The moved
books
do not time out.
You do have to sign up with the Library and get a username and pin.
All free to blind.
Regards
Aedan.

Hi Carol
I have just purchased my subscription for Overdrive, and will be trying
it
out using my U2 Mini. What I don't know is whether you can log into
Overdrive from the browser on the Sense and download books that way, or
whether it will be necessary to do this on the PC and then transfer books
to
a card. I will let you know how this works out.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

Hi all,
We recently heard about this service of lending books from the library
and
understand that there were a number of testers, using various hand-held
devices. We are interested to learn whether anyone on this list actually
tried this whole experience using Braille Sense and, if so, whether it
actually worked.
Thanks for any feedback you can give.
Carol P
