Hello All:

 

I want to highly recommend a new book on BARD.  Actually, it is an old book, recorded by the Colorado Talking Book Library about 1990 and re-released last week.  It is an easy, short read, but well worth it.

 

The book is “So The Blind Can See” by Kay Haraway.  

 

Kay was a braille transcriber for the Denver Red Cross for decades.  She wrote about her experiences as a transcriber, what she learned, and the people she met.  Although there is no evidence that Kay joined the Colorado Federation of the Blind, she had a close relationship with our organization and many of its members.   She wrote a short chapter on several of our past members.

 

The book highlights how easy, compared to today, to get material brailled through the Red Cross.  

 

Please download Kay Haraway’s book and give it a read.  

 

Peggy Chong
