[blindlaw] Seeking Good Volunteer Typists for Convention Assistance

[David Andrews]

We are seeking good typists to facilitate access for a deaf-blind law 
student who will be attending the national convention. Prior 
experience with real-time transcription services or deaf-blind 
communication is not necessary. Typists would use a standard QWERTY 
keyboard that would be wirelessly connected to a BrailleNote. Some 
multi-tasking is required for typists because they would need to be 
able to listen to a speaker and type at the same time.

We are looking for several good typists to provide transcription 
support throughout the convention.  If you are willing to help, 
please contact Beth Braun at <mailto:bbraun at nfb.org>bbraun at nfb.org or 
by calling 410-659-9314 ex. 2369.

Thank you for your consideration.



Thanks, Beth
