Hi all,
I just received this rather upsetting information from another
listserv and thought it might be of use to others on this list.
I hope that those of us who rely on Bookshare's services and who
prefer or need to use the site with a BrailleNote can make both
Bookshare and HumanWare aware of how extremely problematic this
incompatibility is.

Hello Everyone,
The updated Bookshare website is set to launch next week. While
there are many improvements that will help our members, we are
aware of potential bugs with select partner technologies.
The BrailleNote will not be able to download books directly from
Bookshare. We recommend that you download books from Bookshare
prior to our planned website downtime on Monday, October 27 at
5PM Pacific Time. Afterwards, you can continue to read Bookshare
books by downloading from a separate device like a computer and
transfer them to your BrailleNote.
HumanWare has been notified about this issue, and we are working
with them to find a solution to use our updated website. Thank
you for your patience.
Best,
Allison Hilliker
Bookshare Operations Associate
