[NJTechDiv] BARD search question

[carcione at access.net]

Hi Ken.

I don’t understand what you’re trying to do.  I can put a title into title search and find it, if it’s there.  I can put an author in author search and find it.  In the BARD website, I can browse by letter, but, like you say, it’s too much for me, with thousands of results. 

It’s possible your friend’s book isn’t part of BARD, of course.

Hi list ken here.  Was just now looking at the bard site and noticed something very strange.  I can only find search by title or author but only adding a letter If I know the title of a book and I know the author, why can’t I search that way. The book I’m looking for is written by a facebook friend it’s called life rocks on the author’s name is laura pinto.  She is a facebook friend and grew up in NJ now living in florida searching for the title select a letter is impossible there are over 8000 results. There has got to be a better way to find books. If I’m going to use the braille Ereader that’s just to much. Am I missing something. Especially if I want to find books for helping my friend and NJ tech division member denise Lesko with her braille. Any suggestions?
