HI:)

I learned about bookshare after purchasing Kurzweil so they are letting new
users of their products know of the service.

Seemed odd to me but I have heard it now from several blind folks.  Some of 
them work for agencies and software manufacturers too so the feeling must 
be widespread.  The part about haveing to be a member to search worries me 
almost as much as the part about having to be a member to submit.  I am 
also concerned that k1000 and bookshare do not work closely together.  For 
instnace, it would be nice to somehow be able to input a title before 
scanning it and search quickly for it in the bookshare database even if you 
are not a member.  that way, someone new to scanning can make sure the 
bookshare collection does not include the book before beginning the process 
of scanning.

How closely does bookshare work with the makers of scanning packages, 
particularly those made for disabled users?
