I agree with you, George. There have been times when I haven't gotten enough books, but that was more my fault then the fault of the regional library. Bookshare has made it possible for me to get more books and faster and I love it, but I've had very good success with my regional library here in Denver and also the one serving Detroit a long time ago. Gail Hi Julie: I too enjoy Bookshare but I must take exception with you on NLS. I live in Florida and my regional library is very good about sending the books I order, this is especially true since our library system went on-line a few years ago. If anything I seam to have too many books on hand. Now I do agree untill NLS goes digital, we get too many tapes that are broken or can't be read. Just my 2 cents, George R.
