This is why I like Bookshare.  I can get what I want, when I want, without 
having my reading material monitored or limited.

  Bookshare's policy, as I understand it, is that we are content-neutral.  If 
someone went to the trouble to write a book and someone else went to the 
trouble to publish it, it'll go into the collection.  The book may have an 
adult content flag on it, but it'll be in.  (An opinion that I heartily agree 
with!)

    Seriously, does bookshare have a banned books policy? If so, what is it?
