[Nfbwv-talk] Book Share memberships available from the Library Comission

[Brad Hodges]

Marcus and all:

You will need a player, such as the Stream,  or PC program which can 
read  DAISY books. A version of the Victor Soft reader is available to 
Bookshare members free of charge. My own experience with this program is 
less than satasfactory. Karen you should especially appreciate the 
braille reading option via the BrailleNote.

An App for the iPhone, iPod, iPad is also available for $20.

If you are interested you will need to contact the Library Commission staff at the regular number and ask for your library card number. A link allows you to sign on to the LEAP system and after following several steps you will activate your membership on the Book Share site. I just paid $75 for this service.
