Can non-educational institutions (libraries, rehab agencies, community-based organizations) that serve both students and non-students qualify for OSEP-funded organizational membership? In general, Bookshare prefers to see these institutions help qualifying students get individual memberships (with parent/guardian approval for students less than 18 years of age). These institutions can help with the individual student memberships by submitting written (or faxed) proof of disability from qualified certifying professionals. When individual memberships are not a feasible alternative, such organizations can set up an organizational account just for the student members in order to benefit from the OSEP funding. The account for qualified students should be named with “-OSEP” at the end of the agency name, for example, “Community Center of Columbus – OSEP.” If the organization would like to register organizational members who are not students, they can set up a second organizational account wi
