Hi Lynn, and everyone,

        Also, using the "visited links" which is achieved by hitting the
letter v on any web page if you are using JAWS, you can go easily to any
link that you have visited.

Hi Everyone,

I use the book mark option to book mark the links I visit. It has worked 
well so far. The only difficulty is that I had to do that with each 
bookshare page I visit, but once it's done, it makes things very user 
friendly and saves much time navigating the pages.

Blessings.

Hi E. and all,

The reason that the titles appear twice is that you are reading the
titles of the information displayed in the table.  A screen reader
decolumnizes data like this so you get it as a list of things before
the actual stuff happens.

I think the easier way to do this is like so:

1.  When you log in, enable your Links List and press V for Volunteer
Home.   Press Enter.

2.  When you get to Volunteer Home, enable the Links List again, press
m for my.  You will go past my account and land on My Checked Out Books.

3.  Press enter here and once on your checked out page, do a 'find' for
the title of the book you're doing.  This will pass by all the
verbiage.  Or, use the Links List again and look for the first letter
in the title of the book because it is a link that leads to Book Info.
Really make use of that Links List feature.  It's available in all
screen readers.

In Jaws do an insert-f7, in Window-Eyes do an insert-tab, In System
Access, do an insert-f7.

Find may work, but is clumsy.  Isn't there a bookmark feature for Jaws
and WE?  Isn't that why FS is suing GW Micro?  I disremember how to
enable it, but maybe that's an alternative?
