Hi, Donna, Just be aware that iBooks is a bit tricky. When you’re in the library, push the lists radio button to have VO say your book titles. When you open a book, the chapter will be in an HTmL area, which you have to interact with. The shortcut key to switch chapters doesn’t work well with vO, so use the Go menu instead. Also, books with complicated sections within chapters don’t work properly with vO. Straightforward text within chapters will read well.
