While 24,000 is an impressive number for a collection directed towards
blind people, and even more so given the short time BookShare has been in
existence,
most small towns have collections far larger.
Our city of 35,000, as an example, has upwards of 200,000 books (some
duplicates, of course) in its collection not counting audio books, or
videos.
So while BookShare has taken great strides in making reading material
available, it is still a drop in the bucket as compared to what is
available in a typical public library.
