Bookshare is an online library of digital books for people with print disabilities. Their goal is to make the world of print accessible to people with disabilities. Members with visual impairments can listen to books by using a text-to-speech synthesized voice, read books in Braille, or access the material in large print.

People with visual impairments, physical disabilities and/or learning disabilities can look to Bookshare to dramatically increase the quantity and timely availability of books and newspapers in accessible formats. Further, Bookshare’s vision encompasses new technological developments as well as new applications of widely available technologies to stretch the power of technology for increased access to content.
