I had never heard of Scribd, so I cannot assist there. Bookshare is a fabulous resource here in the United States! I use VoiceDream Reader for Bookshare books. I too am surprised the books are not available in the UK. But, if the Marrakesh treaty does finally get enacted, Bookshare is the best resource for books in my opinion. They often get the books from the publisher, so they are available on bookshare the same time they are available in hard copy. Richard

At first glance it seems better than kindle and audible. Also I was thinking of joining bookshare, it doesn’t seem to have much if you are from the UK, for example when I searched for Brandon Sanderson and Laini Taylor using the basic search, a lot of their books were available but when I searched for the same authors using the advanced search and limited the search to those books available from the UK, hardly any books were available. so I am wondering when we will have the same access to bookshare as people in the USA, I thought with the changes to the copyright law etc we would have full access by now?
