Hi,

The newspaper problem is usually a problem of NFB Newsline not being able to
transmit the newspapers to Bookshare.  This is a problem on Newsline's end,
not Bookshare's.

 

It can also be a problem of the newspaper not sending an issue to NFB
Newsline, which is usually the case with the Sunday Oregonian.  I usually
get that on Monday or Tuesday, whenever the Oregonian staff decide to send
it to Newsline.

 

So, when a paper doesn't show up, check with NFB Newsline first, to find out
what the problem is.

 

If you don't have a contact in your State, your Regional Talking Book and
Braille Library should have one.

 

Enjoy the newspapers when you can.  I get frustrated too when such a great
service doesn't work right.

 

Richard

I deleted and re-subscribed to my newspapers again, and now things are
working pretty well except that there are no papers from Sunday.  There had
been at least a couple of Sunday papers previously.
