Bookshare® partners play a critical role. They help make ebooks available in accessible formats to people who cannot read standard print all around the world. By providing access to Bookshare’s huge collection of accessible titles and integrating key Bookshare app features, partners make it easier for people with disabilities to read what they want, how they want.
Bookshare is currently on its V2 API, which uses more industry standard conventions (OAuth2 authorization, and RESTful constraints) for increased security and easier integration. It also supports more features, including Reading Lists and Assign & Read, as well as user roles that allow Membership and Collection management.
We are currently making improvements to our V2 API and evaluating our API partner agreement. Existing partners can continue to access Bookshare’s API to provide access to Bookshare content. New partners will be evaluated and granted access after our improvements are complete. We thank you for your interest and patience. If you have any questions, please contact us at partner-support@bookshare.org
