I've never worked with DAISY because the files are so large, but as far as BRF, just click the download button on the website and you'll be asked what directory to put the file in.  Then after it's done downloading go into the file manager and either use the unzip utility or go into browse files.  Either way, go to where the zip file you've downloaded is, and press enter on the file.  It will ask you some things like what directory you want to unpack the file into and whether you want to delete the zip file once it's unpacked.  Also, it will ask you for a password, but bookshare files aren't password protected, so just press enter.  Once you're done, you will have a BRF file you can read.  Bookshare allows you to set the grade of braille and display size you want to read on, so set these to fit with the model Braillenote you're using.  I like to set files to grade one because when I read them with speech it works better because it doesn't have to deal with ambiguous contractions.

In terms of downloading and also I would like to know which format is better brf or the daisy format?  I appreciate  the help. May you all have a great Sunday.
