I also like the fact that the books are ours. Reading a book from NLS is fine, but I'm a book nut, and I like to have access to books, even after I've read them. Take care.

When I ask my regional library for a particular book, I may see it next month or next year or maybe never. I like the control bookshare gives me over what I read and when. I did look for the book in Web Braille but apparently it hasn't been reissued recently enough to be there.
