I am forwarding this information.  It only applies to people who have
a Braillenote and download directly from Bookshare.

Hello Everyone,

The updated Bookshare website is set to launch next week. While there
are many improvements that will help our members, we are aware of
potential bugs with select partner technologies.

The BrailleNote will not be able to download books directly from
Bookshare. We recommend that you download books from Bookshare prior
to our planned website downtime on Monday, October 27 at 5PM Pacific
Time. Afterwards, you can continue to read Bookshare books by
downloading from a separate device like a computer and transfer them
to your BrailleNote.

HumanWare has been notified about this issue, and we are working with
them to find a solution to use our updated website. Thank you for your
patience.

Best,
Allison Hilliker
Bookshare Operations Associate
