Bookshare

Imagine you are a student who loves to read, but traditional books just don't quite work for you. Maybe you have dyslexia, a visual impairment, or physically turning pages just isn’t feasible. Enter Bookshare, your personalized reading solution. It offers a plethora of options to suit your unique reading style – whether it's listening to books, following along with highlighted text, or customizing fonts and formats. It's like having a library tailor-made just for you!

And speaking of libraries, Bookshare boasts a collection that'll make any bookworm weak at the knees. With over 1.2 million titles at your fingertips, finding the perfect book for your school project or simply for a cozy evening read is a breeze. Seriously, it's like having a literary treasure trove right in your pocket. They even specialize in having school textbooks available in accessible formats!

Bookshare is also convenient. With Bookshare, you can read anytime, anywhere, on any device you fancy – whether it's your laptop, tablet, smartphone, or even specialized assistive technology devices.

And here's the cherry on top – affordability. We're talking free access for qualified U.S. students and schools, and for everyone else, it's still very affordable.

Some districts in Tennessee are already tapping into this free resource with over 2,000 downloads! They're leading the charge in ensuring that every student, regardless of their circumstances, has access to the transformative power of literature. Kudos to Sumner County, TN School for the Blind, and Williamson County for having the most downloads on Bookshare in all of Tennessee for the 23-24 school year!
