Risa, What was the link? When I type in my user name and pasword, I am taken to whatever link I start on. Usually i first get nls address and go to web braille. Then, if I go, for example to the online catalog, I need to type in my user name and password. I can then go to the quick search, where I can do either a single turm search or a multiple turm search. Once I get all that squared away, I use space with dots 4-6 to move to the next control, where you can type or braille in text. In some of these, you can type the title or word or words you want to look for. For example, animals will give you a list of books mostly on that subject, but some I suspect are not, but have the word animal in them and are therefore, included. Anyway, I change whatever I want in the controls, and there are some things you can set to your liking, I am speaking now of the multiple term search, which is different from the single term in that you can make more modifications. In the key word part of the search, be sure to type "web braille" without the quotes because if you don't, you will get braille and cassette titles in your search. Then, I just click on the search button and go through the results and when I find what I want, I just link with it and open it, then save it. Hth
