[nabs-l] VictorStream with Bookshare

[Dezman Jackson]

Jewel,

For BookShare books, they are simply zipped files now so you would just 
unzip them on your computer either in DAISY or BRF braille format.  If you 
connect your stream with SD card to the computer via the long USB cable, it 
should recognize as a mass storage device and you can copy the unzipped file 
or files to the appropriate folder.  Hope this helps.
