Now I’ve got a year’s membership thank God, but I’m always stressing out what am I going to do when it expires? Speaking of which yes I love Bookshare for the availability of books that sometimes don’t make it to BARD (FYI I’m a dual citizen thus part of the NLS Overseas program), but smetimes strugle with trying to get used to reading via synthetic speech! I’m so used to human-read content that… and plus the Voice Dream Reader app, and its integration with Bookshare, definitely give it a go! Good luck!
