And my understanding is Bookshare had a standard. If you could get it in a
regular book store it was NOT to be marked AdULT.
But if it was in the X rated section of the bookstore, or behind the counter
for the library then it was supposed to be marked ADULT.
I have very few books I have marked adult.
I like NLS's way of marking gives the people a choice if they want the
violence, strong langue, or descriptions of sex.

What if the teen is a college student and needs to read some of those books
for college? I know of several people under the age of eighteen who are
university students and can't access certain bookshare books.
