[NJTechDiv] BARD search question

[Andy]

If you are using windows try using BARD Express. I find it to be easy 
and convenient because it has more options than the BARD site does when 
it comes to sorting a large number of results. It also will give you 
1000 results when searching for books.


Also, I think NLS is beta testing a new version that will let you play 
your audio books in windows. I'm not sure how braille is going to be 
supported though.


You can download it from the BARD main page.


Too bad there isn't a mac version.
