"As a sighted but dyslexic person, when young I had to learn to filter out the irrelevant parts of a visual presentation in order to read. (Later, I discovered that most sighted people take this ability for granted.) Much later, working with blind students and colleagues I observed that the same problem presented itself to users of screen readers when addressing complex tools and web pages. While I have not performed a study to verify this, my anecdotal observation is that the later in life a person has to become acquainted with the use of screen readers - and assistive technology in general - the greater the difficulty, the greater the frustration and the more likely to do without many of the rich resources available. One of those resources is Project Gutenberg, which preserves and offers access to many of the written and spoken works that are not available from other sources, but which people that I know find too time consuming to access using a screen reader. As such, I thought it would be an ideal service project."
