[NFBMT] Streaming schedule for NFB convention

[James Aldrich]

Hi all,

I thought I would place this information here before the better part of 
the convention streaming takes place.  Hopefully, This Email will be a 
convenient source for finding the appropriate links for you to stream.  
I don't know of any internet radio station which will stream the 
convention for the convenience of Victor Reader Streams or Echo 
Devices.  If I learn of anything more, I'll pass it along here.  For 
now, this is what I have from the nfb.org site.  This also can be found 
through our nfbofmt site. I missed some Monday streams so needed to 
read more in advance.  Usually the stream starts on Wednesdays.

Catch the Annual Convention of the National Federation of the Blind Online!

The National Federation of the Blind--the voice of the nation's 
blind--will be once again streaming  portions of its annual convention 
over the Internet. The NFB National Convention is the largest  
gathering of the blind anywhere in the world. If you cannot be in 
Orlando, Florida, to catch the  excitement in person, you can listen to 
portions of the convention via the Internet.
