the Stream SD card bookshelf folders.

  g.. Organize songs by genre, artist, and album using subfolders on the 
Stream’s music bookshelf folder.
  h.. Archive Stream recorded notes by moving them to the Other Books and 
Podcasts bookshelves.
  i.. Navigate different book types on the Stream including Microsoft Word 
documents and DAISY Text books and use the Stream to search within these 
text books.
  j.. Search Wiktionary and Wikipedia using the Stream.
