Hi Janice, I sent a querry to Gerald earlier regarding life-time membership in
BookShare. At the time I was jesting, but it seems to me that this subject
should be broached at some level. Those of us that comtribute more than the
required number of books each year than is necessary to maintain our membership
should find some sort ofreward at some level for our work. Maybe bragging
rights or something. Tom Hawkins

Several of you have questioned the reference to $75.00 in the Bookshare.org
Quarterly Newsletter, so let me clarify for you:
What does it cost to join Bookshare? $75.00.
From the website
(http://www.bookshare.org/web/AboutIndividualSubscriptions.html),
Individual Subscriptions
Individual subscriptions enable "all-you-can-read"* access to books in
easy-to-use digital formats for a full year. Subscriptions cost 50 dollars plus
a 25 dollar sign-up fee the first year.
Books and periodicals from Bookshare.org contain the full text of the
publication (not pre-recorded audio) that can be read with the adaptive
technology of the reader's choice. A talking software application is included
with membership, providing members with one option for reading the books. The
publications are also available in contracted digital Braille.
What does it cost to renew your Individual membership? $50.00.
Let us know if you have more questions.
