Weekly Dose of Braille
The Weekly Dose of Braille is created by our Youth Services Librarian and Braille Transcriber, Denise Bean, with the help of our Instructional Materials team. It gives you a taste of braille examples that may be used in worksheets or textbook formatting. It is a miscellaneous mixture of tricky, sometimes challenging circumstances, that a braille transcriber may come across or question. Provided each week is a downloadable PDF file on each topic, a brf file can also be made available for your convenience.
A solution that will help with spacing print information transcirbed into braille. Have you thought of dots 4,5,6? These 3 dots form the Line Indicator. There is a great example in this week’s Dose that provide great detail on how to utilize the line indicator in your braille transcription projects.
Enjoy your week!
