[nabs-l] Bard shut down and government shutdown

Ya, Idownladed 35 audio books and 8 Braille books the last few days. And it might be beneficial to know you can put Bookshare .brf files in the BARD Mobile app for a better read than with Read2Go. So if you run out of BARD books there is always Bookshare!.
