Bookshare honors the service and sacrifices of our Veterans.

Veterans with qualifying disabilities will find books for school and for pleasure reading in Bookshare. The collection has a wide range of topics, including an expanding collection of military interest books. See “Good Books” below for examples. Learn how to get started with Bookshare.
Veterans Who Are Students are eligible for free Bookshare memberships. Many universities have begun veterans/ programs. For example, the California Community College system has begun to serve veterans of Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF). It is estimated that 16,000 of the 21,000 veterans and their dependents using the GI Bill at California postsecondary institutions are enrolled at a community college. Bookshare is looking forward to working with the Veterans Resource Centers at the California Community Colleges. Learn more about these programs in 2011. Other universities with veterans' programs are encouraged to contact Bookshare to provide your students with access to accessible books. In the meantime, learn how to sign up for a student membership with Bookshare.
