• "I have been a Bookshare member for fourteen months. The service is of enormous value--having access to a library of this size and scope was beyond dreaming about when I was growing up in the 'sixties. Thanks, thanks, and ever thanks." - Recent New Subscriber

• "Lush. It feels LUSH, like walking into a good bookstore or a library used to feel like everything is accessible again. Thanks to all of you who had ideas how I could access the books in really large print in addition to Braille." - Liz Halperin, Member and Volunteer

• "I am just amazed by the site and at the diversity of books, many of which are simply not available anywhere else. - Rick Roderick, Member

• "I have a dyslexic 13 year old, and I am trying to ease his homework load by setting up assigned books that he can listen to rather than read visually. The aims of this organization, and the progress it has made so far, are extremely heartening to a very large number of parents and disabled users."- Parent of Member
