Hi Melissa and everyone!
The first book I proofed, "Love on Its Knees" had dots between the title
and the page number in the table of contents while the one I'm proofing
now, "Rebel With a Cause" just has the number without dots, so it's the
print books that are varying in their style of contents.
Your idea of an elipsis sounds like a good one to me, though I do not know
all of the Bookshare rules.

I've been thinking about Valerye's concerns about the table of contents. I
got to thinking about how Braille books have a series of dots between the
chapter title and page number. So, I was wondering if inserting an
ellipses between the chapter title and page number would be an appropriate
solution. An ellipses will be recognized and kept by bookshare's tools,
and will give some separation between chapter title and page number for
those that need that. It wouldn't be spoken by most screen readers, so
wouldn't interfere with anybody's listening pleasure. Finally, since
Braille readers are used to the series of dots between chapter title and
page number, it wouldn't seem unusual to them either. So, do you think
this would be acceptable and not violate any bookshare rules?
