Hi Cristina, and others.
On the bookshare discussion list Angela who works with technical support provided this
link to resources and training tools for using bookshare with IOS. I felt
it might be good to have the link in the list archive, so am sending it
alone.
i echo Angela's hope that it is helpful.

Subject: Best Way to Read Bookshare Books on a Refershable Braille Reader?
Hi all,
I'm pretty new to the refreshable braille reader and the associated technology
in general, so please bear with me. I'm probably goofing something up.
I have a Humanware Brailliant Bi 40 and I have a Bookshare membership. I want to read the
books in braille as I am hearing impaired, so I hate listening to books. I'm using the
Bookshare Read2Go app, but I find the app clunky and difficult to use on the braille
display. For example, some pretty basic commands, such as "scroll page down"
doesn't work with the Brailliant.
I know I can download a file specialized for refreshable braille readers on the
website, but I prefer to read away from my desktop.
Has anyone found a good way to use Bookshare with a refreshable braille reader?
Or am I missing some tips?
Any help would be enormously appreciated! Thanks.
Best,
Cristina
