[Blindtlk] Sunday school courses

[Julie Johnson]

Why can't the books be scanned?

When I suggested Braille, I meant that I would personally make Braille notes 
for myself, with a slate or Braille writer. This is what I did when I taught 
at the college and at the after school programs.  I tried a lot of other 
options...Braille Note, iPad...and found that paper Braille worked best for 
me.  Again, this wasn't sent off and mass produced, it was information I 
personally Brailled for my own use.

Do you have access to an iPhone or something similar?  What tools do you 
have available to you, and what do you need in order to do what you want? 
With that info, I think we can work together to figure out something that 
could work for you.

Sunday school doesn't exist in the orthodox churches here, but I
belong to an international church now with mostly foreigners. They got
some books to use that can't be scanned and in macedonia we have
trouble brailling textbooks for school, let alone other materials.
