Such a wonderful home coming! I used to love coming home to find big boxes
of books waiting for me. It was such fun going through the boxes! Ah well.
Getting excited over magazine boxes just isn't the same. Smile.
Maybe when you load the bard zip braille books when there are more than one
volume you're presented with a sub list of some sort ... Still, fortunately,
bookshare is quite likely to have anything you can find on BARD. Maybe Lucy
will solve the mystery or someone else with a braille note will come up with
the answer.
Good reading,
Rosemarie

thanks, RoseMarie, guess maybe i didn't unzip the files, don't have to unzip
them with bookshare, just took them from bard, put them on my flash card,
and transferred them on to the note, read one volume, but not the rest, ahh
well, if it comes to that, may just delete all my bard books, and just
stick with bookshare, i know with them i get a whole book, LOL, not like i
don't have enough to read, when we got back from our trip on saturday, i had
27 boxes of braille books waiting for me on our inside porch, one of the
piles was taller than Lucy, LOL, Don Don
