Who uses Bookshare?
When I first started using Bookshare, I was overwhelmed. For the first time in my life, I was able to read on my own without the help of family or volunteers. I can now be more independent and look for work.
- Suraj, blind adult
Bookshare is one of very few resources for the disability community, especially if they do not speak English. With Bookshare, I was able to be the first blind student admitted to the Instituto de Estudios Superiores de Tamaulipas.
- Gerardo, blind student
Before Bookshare, I read just enough to pass my tests in school. That all changed when I found Bookshare. This year, I’ve read more books than I’ve read in my lifetime.
- Stan, adult with dyslexia
