Just go to bookshare.org's site. If I remember correctly, there's a section
for international members. You should find what you're looking for there.

Hi Jonathan,
This message is of interest to me because I've been wondering if there's any
point in trying to join Bookshare as a UK citizen.
How do I go about finding more information about what would be available to
me should I join? Any Ideas!:)

Yes, Bookshare is quite widely available globally now. How much content
you can access depends on the country and the agreements Bookshare has
with various publishers.

Hi,
Bookshare is a resource that started because blind people were scanning
books and wanting a way to share them with others so they didn't have to
scan the same book for themselves.
You have to be unable to use a standard print book to join Bookshare
the books are in DAISY text format or BRF format.
Over the last several years, Bookshare has been able to get a lot of
publishers to provide them electronic copies of their books so no
scanning is involved, which means there are vertually no errors in the
books. Plus, they have raised their standards on books that are scanned
by individuals so that books added in the last few years are truly in
excellent shape.
It cos $50 per year to join, though it is free for students.
At this moment, they have over 300 thousand titles to choose from.
Thanks to Voice Dream Reader, I now do the majority of my reading with
books from Bookshare.
I'd encourage you to check it out.

Hi, all.
I just ran across this iOS app and it looks very good. Has anyone used
it? It's a bit pricy at $10.00 but if it's a good app, it's worth it.
There is also a companion app called Voice Dream Writer that is also
$10.00. Here is the link for the Voice Dream Reader app description:
