Terry, it's not even necessary to do it my way. My point is that is you didn't put it in from favorites, and did www.loc.gov/nls/braille that it would put you into the login point. When you see that, and press dot 4-chord, this is what you see: Please type username and passwordThe next dot 4-chord says site The next dot 4-chord says wwwlocgov The next dot 4-chord says braille braille The next one says Enter user name, Computer Braille is required. That's where you'd type in your user name. If you're already getting in, I wouldn't worry about these steps.
