If you’ve tried logging into your account but were unable to download books, it’s possible that your Bookshare membership has expired.  Although Individual Memberships are free for U.S. students with print disabilities, it’s important to keep your school information up-to-date every year too.  This will ensure a smooth transition back-to-school and uninterrupted access to the books you need for school and fun!

  1. HI,
    I am a special education teacher in a Chicago Public School. I really would like my own account! The password has been lost. I would prefer my own account, but if that is not possible, please send me the log-in and password information for Charles Gates Dawes Chicago Public Schools.

    Thank you,
    Julie Fitzpatrick
