This program will occur on the second Thursday of every month from 7-8 PM Eastern Time. Each session will start with a brief presentation covering one aspect of the BARD (the Braille and Audio Reading Download) service, followed by an opportunity for questions about the presentation or other aspects of BARD usage. The first presentation will provide an overview of all of the available BARD products. At the end of each program, the topic for the next presentation will be announced.<br /> <br />These sessions are open to all patrons, and can be accessed through <br />Zoom online<br /><a href="https://loc.zoomgov.com/j/1611161911?pwd=bVh5ejFsWFBlL21KY0VqaHlRMUlSQT09#success">https://loc.zoomgov.com/j/1611161911?pwd=bVh5ejFsWFBlL21KY0VqaHlRMUlSQT09#success</a><br /> using the <br />meeting ID 161 116 1911 <br />and <br />passcode 489758, <br />or via phone at (669) 254-5252 followed by the meeting ID 161 116 1911. <br />Upon connecting, participants will be placed in a virtual waiting room until the program begins. When they enter the room, they will be on mute, and they should remain on mute unless the host calls upon them to speak. At that time, they may unmute by using Alt-A from a computer or star 6 if dialing in by phone. <br /><br />All Many Faces of BARD sessions will be recorded.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=kestrell&ditemid=446901" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://kestrell.dreamwidth.org/446901.html libraries blind perkins audiobooks nls books braille public 0
