Bookshare update

Bookshare has issued another exciting update. You can now download books and convert them into Microsoft Word and Google Docs documents. This will allow students to use different tools and strategies to read books from Bookshare. Below is the announcement directly from the Holiday Newsletter.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Read Books in Word

Books in Word are coming! We are converting books to Word, giving you another great book format to read. Members will be able to download and read books using common tools like Microsoft Word and Google Docs. You will be able to see the text, customize fonts, take notes, and more. Audio may not be available for all devices, but if you use the latest 2016 version of Microsoft Word or a compatible reading application, you can also listen to words read aloud.

See how to read with Word.
