Today we have two great braille resources for you. Our Weekly Dose of Braille and a Braille Bits Podcast. Enjoy!
Braille Bits: Lesson 3 Podcast
Braille Bits is a correspondence-guided class conducted by the Library, providing braille lessons online or by mail. This podcast highlights each Braille Bits lesson and features an interview with a special guest to discuss all things braille. Check out the Braille Bits page for more information.
Weekly Dose of Braille
Timeline? Yes, even timelines have a proper way of formatting. I hope all of you are doing well and fining somewhat of a “new” balance, just realize, this timeline you are creating is only temporary. All of you please take care of yourself and if you have questions don’t hesitate to reach out and ask, questions asked, teach us all so much!
For more information and to see past Weekly Dose of Braille topics check out our Weekly Dose of Braille Page.
The Weekly Dose of Braille is created by our 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. This insightful Weekly Dose of Braille brings your attention to the common use of Unified English Braille and how to implement these rules and formats used by braille transcribers and proofreaders. It is a miscellaneous mixture of tricky, sometimes challenging circumstances, that a braille transcriber may come across or question, but are neatly put into a Weekly Dose of Braille for your easy access. Provided each week is a downloadable PDF file on each topic, a brf file can also be made available for your convenience.
