Hi Lisa,
Althugh I totally agree about the importance and convenience of
Web Braille, I hope Mr. Clyke does not take your message to mean
the demise of hard-copy braille. For a starter, I sometimes
read late at night, especially when unable to fall asleep.
Falling asleep while reading a book in hard-coy is no problem
but reading it with my BN could be! In addition, I don't use
the Bn outsoors in hot weather, which can greatly curtail my
reading pleasure in Summer except for hard-copy braille.
At the moment, the number of books in recorded format is
significantly larger than those produced in hard-copy braille.
So, as much as I enjoy Web Braille, I hope the hard-copy braille
will remain a fixture with NLS.
A Voracious reader
