Rich, if your sister is able to operate a computer or smartphone enough to navigate the Stitcher Podcast app, I'm sure she'd find some interesting / entertaining content.
Mike, That's good to know; I'll pass on the information to my niece down there.
I also did a quick Google and came across this article, https://brailleworks.com/9-apps-accessibility-technology/ This in particular caught my attention: BARD <https://bard.loc.gov/login//NLS> allows users to download books, journals, publications, magazines, and music scores in audio and braille from the Library of Congress.
I saw an article about BARD within the past couple of days. It focused on old movies one could download.
BARD does a great job of getting books on the app within the first or second year of their release date. With Bluetooth, users can connect refreshable braille displays and play audio materials. This app is available FREE for both Apple and Android devices if you have an account with the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped(NLS). I hope that's helpful.
Thanks, Rich _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
