<h2><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a name="President"></a><span style="font-size: medium;">Message from the President</span></span></span></h2>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Dear Friends,</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The crisp air, smell of decaying leaves, and the presence of pumpkins everywhere lets us know that autumn has arrived. October has become known as Meet the Blind Month in the National Federation of the
Blind. This is a time for our members to plan specific programs to get into the community to increase the positive images of blindness among the general public.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">October is a fitting month for Meet the Blind Month because it also has a feeling of the unexpected. Who might emerge as the unexpected hero to push a team into the World Series? What might happen in
the local or national political contests? And what will you be for Halloween that will cause a stir? The unexpected is what we spend a lot of time working on in the National Federation of the Blind, but for us the unexpected is ordinary. How do blind people
travel, manage a household, keep up on the news of the day, or do business on the internet? Meet the Blind Month is all about turning the unexpected into something ordinary.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">This Halloween, I encourage you to distribute National Federation of the Blind Braille alphabet cards with your treats to the ghosts, witches, and superheroes that pay you a visit. How unexpected would
it be for every kid in the neighborhood to get a taste of Braille? More importantly, how ordinary will it become when everyone is exposed to the code that blind people use to live the lives they want?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Thank you for all you do to help teach people about the National Federation of the Blind. Please share with me your unique approaches to making the unexpected ordinary during Meet the Blind Month 2016.
Together we will transform dreams into reality.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Happy Meet the Blind Month,</span></p>

<h3><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>AIM HE Legislation Introduced</strong></span></h3>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Congressman Phil Roe (R-TN) and Congressman Joe Courtney (D-CT) introduced the Accessible Instructional Materials in Higher Education (AIM HE) Act (H.R. 6122). The AIM HE Act, which is a collaborative
initiative of the National Federation of the Blind, the American Council on Education, the Association of American Publishers, Educause®, and the Software and Information Industry Association, will authorize a purpose-based commission comprised of persons
with disabilities, developers, and manufacturers, as well as representatives from institutions of higher education. This commission will develop voluntary accessibility guidelines for instructional materials used in postsecondary educational programs. Additionally,
the commission will be tasked with developing an annotated list of existing national and international information technology standards as an additional resource for institutions of higher education and companies that service the higher education market. More
information about the AIM HE Act can be found at <a href="http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=5896&qid=1394206" target="_blank" title="Link to AIM HE information">https://nfb.org/aim_he</a>. </span></p>
<h3><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Voting Rights in Maryland</strong></span></h3>

<h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><strong><a name="Braille"></a>Braille Certification Training Program</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Under a contract with the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped, Library of Congress (NLS), the National Federation of the Blind administers the courses leading to NLS certification
of Braille transcribers and proofreaders.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Starting in January 2015, all new students in the literary transcribing/proofreading courses began learning under the rules of Unified English Braille (UEB), and students who had been working in the older
version of the course were switched to the new version during the year.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Successful completion of these rigorous courses requires a great deal of time and effort on the part of the students. We congratulate the following individuals who earned certification in literary transcribing
during the month of July 2016, achieving certificates under the rules of Unified English Braille:</span></p>

is an add-on credential to an existing certificate. As of this writing, 175 individuals have earned this letter of proficiency in Unified English Braille from the Library of Congress.</span></p>

<h2><a id="Library" name="Library"><strong><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">From the tenBroek Library</span></span></strong></a></h2>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Staff from the Jacobus tenBroek Library recently had the opportunity to represent the National Federation of the Blind at a special meeting involving more than fifty archivists, librarians, disability
historians, and disability rights activists, held at the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) on August 1-2, 2016. The purpose of the meeting, which brought together representatives from organizations across the country, was to begin planning for the creation
of a national, disability-history archives consortium. The aim of the consortium is to provide support to its members, to promote the disability history materials that they preserve, and to increase their exposure to both researchers in the budding field of
disability studies and to members of the disabled populations that the collections depict. The assembled group discussed many potential projects, chief among them the plan to create an integrated, online research portal that will feature digitized archival
materials, links to member institutions holding disability history collections, and other resources to aid both researchers and collection donors, all presented with accessibility in mind.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The conference was sponsored by the UTA Libraries, Disability Studies Minor program, and Department of History, and was made possible in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
To learn more about the conference and the next steps for building the disability-history archives consortium, UTA has published a press release that can be accessed at

http://www.uta.edu/news/releases/2016/09/disability-history-consortium.php</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The tenBroek Library was pleased to be a part of this unique meeting and looks forward to representing the important role of the National Federation of the Blind in the history of the disability rights
movement as the work of the consortium progresses.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><img alt="Graphic: section divider" height="2" src="https://nfb.org/sites/nfb.org/files/images/Divider.gif" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="243"></span></p>
<h2><a id="Education" name="Education"><strong><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Education</span></span></strong></a></h2>
<h3><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>NFB BELL Academy</strong></span></h3>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The NFB Braille Enrichment for Literacy and Learning (BELL) Academy prepares blind and low-vision children, ages four through twelve, to grow into confident and independent blind people who will live
the lives they want by providing Braille and nonvisual skills instruction through fun, hands-on learning in a day program or residential setting.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">In addition to Braille crafts, games, and other engaging projects, children learn vital independent-living skills, interact with blind adults who serve as mentors, and enjoy field trips to sites related
to the NFB BELL Academy curriculum. Through these activities and interactions, the children learn that blindness or low vision does not define them or their future.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">NFB BELL Academy changes lives. A rising seventh grader attended NFB BELL Academy for the first time this summer. She had a Braille teacher in first and second grades. However, her school thought she
could see too well to continue with Braille, so they terminated her instruction in Braille. Five years later this bright young lady has been struggling more and more every year in school. The volume of work has grown, print size has shrunk, and her persistent
headaches have halted any recreational reading and limited her ability to complete regular school work.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">This young lady’s parents knew that something needed to change. Her mother signed her up for NFB BELL Academy and drove four hours each day for two weeks to provide her daughter the opportunity to learn
the skills she needs. At the end of each day, NFB BELL Academy students share their accomplishments of the day, which we call “BELL Ringers.” On her second day this young lady, who had not been exposed to any Braille for the past five years, reflected on the
impact of NFB BELL Academy: “I came in yesterday knowing “a” and I’m leaving today knowing “a” through “t.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">This summer, thirty states have offered forty-four NFB BELL Academy sites, providing more than sixteen thousand hours of instruction to more than three hundred blind youth.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">This fall, the Jernigan Institute will be holding two training seminars to prepare for NFB BELL Academy next summer. Additionally, we will provide NFB BELL Academy teacher training via distance education
beginning this winter and continuing through the spring of 2017.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The NFB Independence Market is the conduit through which we distribute our empowering literature to our members and the general public. We also operate a blindness products store focusing primarily on
low-tech items. As promised in an earlier issue of <em>Imagineering</em>, here are descriptions of the remaining products that were new at this year's national convention.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">We are test-marketing a carbon fiber

<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">We have added the <a href="http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=5897&qid=1394206" target="_blank" title="Link to the Talking Infrared Thermometer">

<h3><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Success</strong></span></h3>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The National Federation of the Blind applauds NFB of New Jersey member Anthony Lanzilotti for his recent graduation from Atlantic Cape Community College and acceptance into the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society.
Mr. Lanzilotti’s tenacity was key to his success in participating fully and equally in his college’s programs and in securing his degree. During the course of his attending Atlantic Cape Community College, Mr. Lanzilotti was a plaintiff alongside the NFB in
a lawsuit against the school. The <a href="http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=5895&qid=1394206" target="_blank" title="Link to ACCC consent decree">
resulting 2015 consent decree</a> requires the school to ensure accessibility of its website and all instructional material and educational technology, and to review and revise its policies for accommodating students with disabilities, thus laying a framework
for success for future blind Atlantic Cape Community College students. Congratulations, Anthony! </span><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
