[Faith-talk] bookshare

[Ashley Bramlett]

good to know. How many books can you download from bookshare and can you 
write in the files? Probably not since they're likely a locked file. But it 
would be nice to be able to bookmark and write notes in one for studying or 
just mark sections you realy like.

>> Hi all,
>>
>> I was wondering details on bookshare; not a member yet. All those books 
>> are text based, not audio format right?
>> If I’m listening, I can better comprehend via a human voice, not 
>> synthesized speech.
>>
>> Some questions.
>> 1. What Christian resources have you seen? Books? Devotionals?
>> 2. How do you search for books? I know you can do this without being a 
>> member. The site looked complex when I attempted to use it.
>> 3. Is the cost $75? And do you have to prove you’re blind? I already get 
>> NLS and learning ally books.
>> 4. How do you play/read the books? I guess they have to be unzipped once 
>> you download them. I have a vr stream so might use that if I can figure 
>> out how to transfer a book.
>> 5. Books are written everyday and published. The thing with NLS and 
>> learning Ally is by the time they record a book it’s a year late or more. 
>> That is why often the editions of books are one behind your print 
>> classmates.
>> So, does bookshare have recent books? I mean like in the past six months?
>>
>> Thanks. I’ve really thought about joining bookshare, but I don’t have the 
>> patience to wade through a website and download stuff. I went on the site 
>> several times and clicked on books and it kept bringing me to lists of 
>> other books or categories. My jaws internet skills are pretty good. I 
>> just don’t want to spend hours trying to download a book.
