Bookshare

Bookshare.org is a repository of books in digital format for eligible students. Eligible students are those who are unable to read standard print because of a visual impairment, physical impairment, or learning disability, such as Dyslexia. Bookshare provides text-to-speech for textbooks and literature books. When used in conjunction with Read and Write for Google, students can annotate, look up vocabulary, highlight and extract text directly out of a digital book into a google doc.
