This versatile, powerful DAISY, NLS (Library of Congress), MP3 and NISO player lets you read and navigate through complex books, such as reference manuals and schoolbooks, as well as novels and magazines. This Library Edition also plays NLS book cartridges (for eligible members.) You can also use its built in text to speech to read books in text format such as Bookshare.

Plus there are many more functions, including an integrated microphone to record voice notes. No other DAISY player offers you so much in such a small package.

PACKED WITH DAISY FUNCTIONS
This little player packs a mighty punch, offering high performance and advanced navigation. Victor Reader Stream gives you access to a book with equivalent speed, flexibility and accuracy of reading a printed book. Full control is at your fingertips.

YOUR BOOKS AND MUSIC GO EVERYWHERE WITH YOU
Since it is ultra-compact and sleek, you can take it everywhere. No need to bring CDs with you, it stores everything in its SD memory card. Only the size of a deck of cards, it fits in the palm of your hand and can easily be carried in a pocket or clipped on your belt in its attractive case.

HOURS OF UNINTERRUPTED READING
Since you will not want to stop using it, Stream comes with rechargeable batteries providing up to 15 hours of uninterrupted listening time. So long trips become the perfect time to catch up on reading.

ABOUT THE STREAM LIBRARY EDITION
It's a new package that includes a VictorReader Stream, an NLS book cartridge holder, an SD card packed with information, and headphones.

Note: The standard Stream will continue to be packaged with a short USB cable to attach to the NLS book cartridge to play or copy it to the Stream.

In the United States, over the next few years the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped (NLS) will replace old cassette books and magazines by new digital book cartridges. Digital book cartridges are about the same size as a single cassette but the entire book fits on only one cartridge. There is no need to manage multiple cassettes or change sides anymore. The digital books on the cartridges are high quality human recorded audio without the hiss of cassette tapes. NLS will provide free digital book cartridge players over the coming years to all patrons.

The Library Edition is a new model of the popular pocket size Victor Reader Stream from HumanWare and is capable of playing both the download digital books and the new book cartridges. If you do not have a computer for downloading books the Victor Reader Stream Library Edition can play the book cartridges directly using its convenient book cartridge holder that attaches to the back of the Stream to hold the cartridge. Simply insert a book cartridge into the holder and the book begins to play automatically.

The NLS digital books are encrypted and you must apply to the NLS Braille and Audio Reading Download (BARD) web site to get an authorization file that, when loaded to the Stream, will provide the necessary digital decryption key to play both the download books and book cartridges.
