1. They need to log in to the NLS BARD site, assuming they're already registered with the library. 2. Find the book using the search facility of the site. 3. Simply click on the link that says "Download (book title, whatever that might be." By default, the zipped file will download to the specified download folder, usually, not surprisingly, the Download folder. 4. Navigate to the downloaded file in the Finder and open the file with Command-o. This will unzip the file. 5. Copy the decompressed file folder and navigate to the thumb drive on the desktop. 6. Open the thumb drive with Command-o and press Command-v to paste the book onto the thumb drive.
