[blparent] question about accessible books

[Shannon Wells]

Reading it myself was just a last resort kind of thought. I'm not sure I 
could do it very well, even if it's right in front of me, and besides, with 
a 3 year old and a 1 year old, when would I have the quiet and privacy to do 
so? Checked out bookshare, but have to think on it. There aren't too many 
anymore who do not have a working computer. Also, heard somewhere that some 
libraries for the blind will put them on tape. Also, I'm going to check with 
the National Library Service's digital download, folks, to see if they will 
make it digital, so patrons who are enrolled, can download to their victor 
stream readers. What a cool thing that is. Anyway, thanks for the responses. 
Well, another diaper to change!
