When I request a book to be added, when will it be ready?

Converting books into accessible format is a complex process, and we can't guarantee a specific turnaround time.  

For books that are available in the NIMAC, we can usually add them to the collection within 1-2 weeks.

Other books may take from a couple of weeks to several months, depending on the complexity and how many other requests are being processed at the same time.  "Back to school" is an extremely busy time for us, so we encourage you to place your requests for classroom materials as early as you possibly can!

You can check on the current status of your request any time by going to MyBookshare -- there will be a section on MyRequests.  When your book is ready, we will send you an email with a direct link to it.
