Nebraska Book Now Available on BARD!
“Caril” by Ninette Beaver, B. K. Ripley, and Patrick Trese is now available on cartridge and for download on BARD, the Braille and Audio Reading Download service. BARD is a service offered by the Nebraska Library Commission Talking Book and Braille Service and the National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled at the Library of Congress.
In 1958, fourteen-year-old Caril Ann Fugate followed Charles Starkweather on a cold-blooded murder spree. This is the story of Caril’s triumph over desperation and tragedy — of a young woman who found faith and hope behind prison walls.
TBBS borrowers can request “Caril” DCB02043 or download it from the National Library Service BARD (Braille and Audio Reading Download) website. If you have high-speed internet access, you can download books to your smartphone or tablet, or onto a flash drive for use with your player. You may also contact your reader’s advisor to have the book mailed to you on cartridge.
