Epigraphs vs Attributes
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.
This past Wednesday afternoon, I was asked an uncommon question from a braille transcriber preparing classroom materials, and I thought you’d benefit from it too:
“Is it important to format attributions differently than an epigraph?” The answer: Yes, there are some key differences to keep in mind. This week’s Dose will highlight the differences.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend ahead!
Denise
