Learn About BARD Express 2024

 

NLS is pleased to announce the release of BARD Express, version 3.0.0.7. This release includes the long-awaited BARD Express Player which allows patrons to choose an audio book or magazine from their BARD Express bookshelf and listen to it directly on their PC.

If you’re interested in learning more about BARD Express and how to use the new Player feature, please join us when we host Jim Denham, assistive technology specialist from the Wisconsin Council of the Blind and Visually Impaired, on Nov., 12th at 1:30.

Much like BARD Mobile, with the BARD Express Player, users can adjust the narration speed; jump to navigation points such as part, chapter, and article; create bookmarks; and much more.

To participate please call the DialPad Meetings number at 1-855-753-0200 at the appointed time. The number is toll-free. If you are the first person to call you will hear hold music. Once a second caller joins, you'll be connected to the conversation.
