Hello All:

I've got a question about Bookshare.  Can people living in Canada become
Bookshare members?  I received a call from someone from Quebec, Canada
asking me this question.  In looking at Bookshare's website, it states
it is taking advantage of exemptions in U.S. Copyright law for producing
books in specialized formats.

I sent an e-mail to [email protected] and have not heard anything back.
So, just wanted to see if anyone here has an answer.

Thanks in advance,
