[nabs-l] Bookshare question

[Chris Nusbaum]

Bookshare offers books in DAISY, MP3 and BRF formats. When I use Bookshare I often download the BRF copy in order to access it on a Braille display or notetaker. If you do not have access to a player which can read Braille or DAISY files, however, you may be able to access the book you want in TXT format from another source like AccessText or VitalSource Bookshelf.
