The National Federation of the Blind advances the lives of its members and
all blind people in the United States. We know that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. Our collective power, determination,
and diversity achieve the aspirations of all blind people.

*Announcing NLS Braille eReader software update*
<https://links-1.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fwww.loc.gov%2Fnls%2Fservices-and-resources%2Fcatalog-and-bard%2F%3Floclr=eabard/2/0100019ce32e45e3-c9727bd6-cea7-4838-b2bd-2abc95fea423-000000/jFCDFen9qUqXxkNFuhdyXIGfBxn5yerXa_0G6tpbcTs=448>

NLS has released an update to the software used by the HumanWare NLS
Braille eReader. Patrons can download and install the software, called EBH
version 3.0.1_Build 3486, upon connecting to Wi-Fi. (No update is required
for patrons using the Zoomax model of the NLS Braille eReader.)

This software update addresses a bug in EBH software version 3.0 that
prevented patrons from logging into BARD or downloading BARD books due to
expired tokens. It improves the HumanWare NLS Braille eReader’s handling of
BARD Login token expirations and ensures that tokens are not malformed due
to concurrent access.

If your HumanWare eReader is not connected to the Internet, you do not need
to install this software update.
