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.
For braille transcribers, proper formatting is essential to ensure clarity for our braille readers. Even small details, like how to place special symbols next to letters or numbers, can make a big difference. One question that often comes up is the copyright symbol, what’s the best way to space it?
Have an incredible week, the weather is going to be a wonderful reminder that summer is still in Iowa!
Thank you for all your passion in what you do for others!
Denise
