seedlings is a great affordable place to buy braille books and through 
their book angel program you can get 2 free braille books a year! Also, 
my local library can order them from our resource center and have them 
delivered to them for us to check out. You should go to local library 
and ask. They will help you out. Although your main branch may have more 
info.  Seedlings is definitely affordable though.

Good luck!
