[nabs-l] Accessible EBooks

[Karl Martin Adam]

I haven't used it myself, but my understanding is that the Kindle 
IPhone ap is accessible even though the Kindle itself isn't.

Hi Sophie

Thanks so much for the feedback. Is Kindle accessible though? 
because
this makes it sound like it isn't: https://nfb.org/kindle-books
Any other ideas for reading Ebooks on a laptop?

Thanks :)

 Sofia, if you have an iPhone, you can use iBooks. The E-books in
 the Apple store are fairly priced and accessible. You can also
 use the Kindle app to download books from Amazon.

 Hi Sofia and All,
 A website I use for E-textbooks is www.coursesmart.com. Their
 books are
 fairly priced, there web E-reader is accessible and reliable, 
and
 if you
 realize you don't need a book after renting, their return policy
 is straight
 forward.
 Hope this helps.

 ...Gabe

 Hi Everyone

 So aside from bookshare, does anyone know any commercial website
 that has
 accessible E-books? I'm just curious if any of the commercial
 sites work :)

 Thanks!

 Sofia
