In Brief

NLS on the Move: The latest on our new initiatives In July 2017, NLS launched a newsletter called “NLS on the Move” to keep the staff in our national network of cooperating libraries updated on the progress of pilot projects and other new initiatives. Selections from this newsletter that may be of interest to NLS patrons are reprinted in Talking Book Topics and Braille Book Review.

Next phase of wireless delivery pilot begins Originally published February 22, 2018 Patron volunteers from almost forty network libraries around the country are beginning the next phase of testing of wireless delivery using the prototype device we call the MOCA (an acronym for MObile CArtridge device). The MOCA—designed largely by NLS engineers—allows the volunteers to access books and magazines from the NLS Braille and Audio Reading Download (BARD) site that have been “pushed” to the device by network library reader advisors. The selections are transferred to a cartridge that can be played on an NLS digital talking-book machine or compatible third-party player—and used again and again to receive more books and magazines. The MOCA relies on public cellular networks, not on Wi-Fi. Staff members at several network libraries tested the MOCA last fall and then recruited patrons for the current pilot. “We asked each participating library to identify three or four patrons who are avid readers but don’t use BARD because they don’t have a computer or a mobile device,” Education and Training Specialist Paula Bahmani said. “We were also looking for patrons who were willing to try something new and give us detailed feedback on their experience with wireless delivery.” The first MOCAs were shipped to patrons from eight libraries in January; more will go out in the coming weeks. When the pilot ends this summer, NLS will evaluate the results and decide next steps. “This pilot is intended to study the feasibility and cost of wireless download for our patrons,” Director Karen Keninger said. “It’s one small step of many that we’re taking toward planning the future of NLS.”

Wooden games available for purchase The Braille Superstore has brought back its wooden games, which are made of teak and adapted for blind players. Titles include Connect Four, Chess, Shut the Box, Backgammon, Tangram, Parcheesi, Chinese Checkers, and Snakes and Ladders. For more information, call the Braille Superstore at 1-800-987-1231 (toll-free) or visit www.braillebookstore.com.

Braille maps available from NBP The collection of tactile maps and other drawings produced by the Princeton Braillists over the past three decades has been transferred to National Braille Press (NBP), where arrangements are being made for ongoing distribution. The Princeton Braillists produced thirty-five books of tactile maps. The maps are detailed and labeled in braille only, so some experience with tactile drawings is recommended for map users. National Braille Press hopes to maintain and reproduce the current maps while looking into ways to update the geographical information, recode the braille to meet Unified English Braille standards, and create new volumes for different countries and states. For more information about these maps and drawings, call (617) 425-2442.
