Hi Ibrahim How do you access your book marks in iBooks? I've inserted a couple and can't figure out how to find them later.

IBook's is fully accessible with VO, in fact I read on average 3-4 full length novels using VO and IBook's every week. When in the main interface, you have the library and store buttons, a search box to search your library, a couple of buttons for sorting your books in to a list or grid and then a series of tabs which take you to different parts of the app, as well as an edit button which lets you choose the types of books shown in your library, as IBook's can read PDF files you download or receive by other means as well. I suggest you download a free book first, the adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Jain Air and plenty of literary classics are available all completely free to download and will give you good opportunity to familiarise yourself with the reading interface which I will summarise here also. When you open a book, you have from the top left, you have the library button which takes you back to your library, the table of contents button which allows you to select from chapters or any bookmarks you may have inserted, also it lets you annotate any bookmarks with notes, the appearance button which allows you to adjust various visual reading options, search which lets you search the text for a specific word, phrase or other text entry string, add bookmark which is self explanatory then the reading area. The reading area is where the text of the book appears, once you're focused on this, flick up with two fingers to start continuous reading from the current position, you can also use the left/right three finger flicks to turn to the next and previous pages respectively. Finally, the last control you can interact with is the page chooser, this is a vertical list control which allows you to swiftly progress through the pages of the book, useful if you are looking for a particular page you haven't bookmarked and it works like other list controls, that is to say a single flick with one finger up or down will move page by page. I hope this explanation helps you to get the most from IBook's, I love it and this will all become second nature to you in time. All the best, Ibrahim. -----Original Message----- From: jessica brown Sent: Monday, September 09, 2013 11:39 PM To: IOS Subject: accessible-iOS reading iBooks question Hi. Last time I tried to use iBooks, I could not figure out how to turn the pages or get vo to read the book or how to navigate by chapter or anything. Am I doing something wrong or does iBooks not work with vo? It's kind of hard to believe it does not work with vo because it is developed by apple. So I must be doing something wrong. I tried everything and could not make it work so I deleted it, but there is a book in the iBooks store that I really want to read and can not find anywhere else. The book I want is 10 dollars, but I do not want to get it only to find I can not navigate or read the book. Is there any free books I can get to try iBooks before I buy my 10 dollars book? Also, do only some iBooks work with vo or can you read all books in the store using vo. Thank you.
