Corey, Bookshare often has books available for download much more quickly than NLS. I find both sites easy to navigate. Once you sign in at bookshare, you are not nagged about signing pledges, but the books themseles include a blurb at the beginning describing the restrictions on the material downloaded. Bookshare books must be unpacked, which takes a few seconds, and requires your personal code. I use both services, but bookshare far more because there are many more books I want to read at that site.

Hi all,

I have a quick question.  I would be very intersted in hearing
from people who use Bookshare and how you feel it compares to the
Free NLS Web Braille program.  Are the books easy to access on
the Braille Note? What are the advantages of Bookshare over NLS
or RFB&D?  You are welcome to e-mail me privately at
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks!
Nikki B.
