There's no real Bookshare policy. For me personally, I love duplication because what's on NLS is usually only on tape, and since I'm hearing impaired, I don't do talking books. If it's not available in braille from NLS, it's totally unusable to me, and I'm not the only Bookshare member with that problem, so for that, I'm glad there is no policy about duplicating what's elsewhere. Just because it's elsewhere doesn't mean it's totally accessible to all of us, but if it's on Bookshare it is. Take care.

What is the policy (or is there even a policy) at bookshare about books that are available from NLS, either in web braille or in the new digital format? Is anyone concerned about seemingly duplicating effort to get a book published in more than one accessible format? If I were to be asked, I would prefer all books in the digital format provided by bookshare, and not in a human voice recording format. - Karen At 05:07 PM 9/20/2008, you wrote: >Hi everybody.
