In case some are not aware:
We are pleased to inform you that the BARD Mobile app for iOS mobile
devices has been updated. Version 1.1 can be downloaded from the Apple
App Store.
According to the National Library Service for the Blind and Handicapped,
this updated version of the app includes the following features:
* Built-in sleep timer
* New setting that keeps device from sleeping while download is in
progress
* Add to wish list directly from details screen
* Enhanced braille search function

The BARD Mobile app enables NLS patrons to download audio and braille
books, magazines, and music scores directly to their iPhone, iPad, or
iPod touch,
provided they have a BARD account. A refreshable braille display is
required to read downloaded braille materials. The user guide is
available in the Help
section of the app and online in HTML format at:
