Bibli's Bookshelf is a project of Accessible Knowledge, a not-for-profit corporation whose mission is to create online libraries that are accessible to everyone.

Libraries should be free and freely available. They provide a storehouse of knowledge, but just as importantly, they nurture a love of books among each new generation of readers. Libraries are not just for people who can already read, but also beginning readers and non-readers. Libraries should be available to people who are homebound or disabled. Libraries should be places where parents can share books with their children, even if the parents themselves have difficulty reading.

These are reasons why Bibli's Bookshelf has pictures on every page. This is why you can download a free screen reader at the front entrance to the library. This is why Bibli's Bookshelf is designed to work with other screen readers as well.

We welcome comments and suggestions. Our email address is bibli@simtalk.com.
