It's fairly easy to get an API  key:

Start at 
http://developer.bookshare.org/docs

You'll need to sign in with your Bookshare account to get the
key.

Once you have the key, (keep it safe, ie dont give it to any one
else since it's tied to your account) --
Use the Emacs Custom interface (M-x customize-variable) to set 
emacspeak-bookshare-api-key to this key -- it'l be a cryptic that
is different from your passwd. From there  on it should work -
especially if you're running Emacs 24.4 which has the Web browser
EWWb built-in.
