Hi Janet,
The work on the expansion of papers on Bookshare is quite commendable.
The service is very important to me. I am both totally blind and profoundly
hard of hearing. Although I can understand speech, listening to synthesized
speech for a long period of time can be fatiguing. Being able to read
newspapers on a braille notetaker is invaluable to me. Besiees, I learn
much more from newspapers than from TV or radio news.
Keep up the good work!
As far as the AP was concerned, it was a nice feature but not as important
as the newspapers. I see why keeping up with it in braille would be
difficult because of the constant updating.
