Well, Illinois has a contract with them, and no one, at any time, has even 
referred to having to pay a fee.  I got a brochure from them in the mail 
when this started, and it instructed me to have my affiliate NLS library 
register me with them.  That is all I know, just my own experience.  They 
said nothing about the state or anyone else paying a fee.

Subject: [bookshare-discuss] curious about klas


Hi all
I was curious to see how many nls libraries were on klas. I had not been on 
the klas web site for a long time.  I have the colorado talking book library 
web site as my home page.  I think all libraries that are on the nls system 
are  hooked up with klas.  Colorado just started building up their braille 
book collection.  We used to have to get braille  books from Utah.   It cost 
$50 per patron.  The state who was having Utah send their blind patrons paid 
it if the person was already  receiving braille books  when their state 
library started having their patrons get braille books from Utah.  I know 
for a fact that the local nls libraries would ask their new patrons to pay 
the $50 if they wanted to receive braille books.
