BANA Offers New Publication-The UEB Reader The Braille Authority of North
America (BANA) is pleased to make available The UEB Reader, a resource
designed to introduce braille readers to Unified English Braille (UEB). This
introductory hardcopy braille booklet incorporates into one document several
key resources found on the BANA website. The UEB Reader is available free of
charge upon request.

The UEB Reader includes content from BANA's publication, Overview of Changes
from Current Literary Braille to UEB, plus several example documents
transcribed in UEB for readers to use as practice. This resource was
compiled to help current braille readers become more familiar with UEB and
to assist braille readers, transcribers, teachers, and families as they make
the transition to UEB.

To receive a free braille copy of The UEB Reader, contact Kim Charlson at
