Hi, Paula. I think that's one of the things I love most about both Web
braille and Bookshare. Many sighted people, if they like to read, have been
able to keep a sizable collection of books for themselves. They've been
doing that for years, but it hasn't been too long ago that blind people
couldn't do that, and now, we can. I love hardcopy braille, but there's no
way I could physically keep that many books, not to mention not being able
to pay for them even if I could. <smile> Take care.

And here I thought I was the only person who loved the smell of braille
books! Still, I love refreshable braille, because now I can actually keep
the books I read, in case I want to look back at them. I don't think most
sighted people realize that before services like Bookshare, most blind
people were only able to own a few books.
