Hi Dawn,

Do you happen to have a braille display and an iPhone? Reading it in braille on Kindle or iBooks may be an option if you do.

Cheers,

Ed

It won't be available on Bookshare because of a regulation about plays, which this book is.  National Braille Press, which made the other Harry Potter books available, isn't doing this one.  I've checked with American Printing House and several other organizations.  My NLS library says that they don't know if / when it will be available in braille, and volunteer transcription places I have checked with want to know whether the book will be  available through NLS first.  I have contacted RNIB, an organization in the UK, and they have the book available, but it has been complicated getting it from them.  They don't do online orders, and right now they are not accepting credit card orders because of some difficulty they are having.  Does anyone know where I could find it in the United States? My kids and I have enjoyed reading all of the other HP books together.  I didn't anticipate having this much trouble finding it or finding a place that will be transcribing it soon.
