Bookshare to Kindle tutorial

Tutorial on how to get a book from Bookshare on to your kindle.
This might work for other e-readers, but I'm not sure.

I have not found any other tutorials containing this information so I thought it'd be appropriate to share this info with the world. There is a longer way (html to word document to pdf) of going about this, but I figured an easier way to do it. Not only does it take half the time required of the original method, it take up less space.

Background info: I'm a visually impaired high school student who was tired of reading books on the Victor for Bookshare program. I acquired an e-reader as a Christmas gift and set about finding a way to get the Bookshare books on the e-reader.

Sorry for the teribad video quality. DX

@ValJanela When you download from Bookshare, it is in a password-required zip file. In this zip are multiple different files that are used to be compatible with programs such as Victor Reader. To have it emailed to your kindle, Amazon charges (the last time I checked).

You have overcomplicated this. There is a much, much easier way ,simply download your book, save it to your PC in preferred format,have your Kindle connected,then email the book as an attachment to your Kindle's email address, which you would have set up during Registration. It arrived in 2-3 minutes. SEEMPLES!!
