Carolyn, I have never used Bookshare but to my understanding, you 
have to be a paid member in order to download books from them.  
You can't download books for free from BookShare.  Jim WA6EKS

Do you have to join book share if you just down load? I don't 
want to pay
for a subscription.

who beta

able to
 try
 the newest one that allows you to download podcasts,NLS books, 
and

 materials.  We have discovered and reported a few bugs, but by 
and large
 they have done a terrific job.  I hope the public version will 
be
 released
 in a couple of weeks as was the first update.  Just know that 
its coming,
 and it's great!  Jim WA6EKS
