Looking at your ministries' web site, such a service would seem to be a
natural extension of what you are attempting to do.
And if it were set up in a similar way as BookShare is, it would also
allow blind Christians to participate in the ministry by scanning and
validating books.
Would I pay $40 or $50 a year; most certainly, if the selection were wide,
current, and in reasonable numbers.
I might even be willing to donate money above and beyond that as one of
the Christian ministries we support.
And I might be willing to donate my time in preparation of materials.
I read somewhere that there are about 10,000 Christian books published
each year, and only a handful make it into accessible form.
Given contemporary technology, it is high time that some Christian
organization chose to minister in this direction.
