Subject: [Md-sligo] Celebrate Braille Literacy

January 4 is Louis Braille's birthday.  To celebrate, we are 
going to educate the public about braille and blindness at the 
Rockville Library.  We will have children read and adults talk 
about braille.  We will present Aisha with her unimanual brailler 
on that day.  We hope to have public figures and to get a braille 
literacy proclamation.  We will have tables demonstrating 
different equipment and techniques, such as braillers, slates, 
braille notetakers, braille games, and reading materials.  We 
will need people to work at the tables and people to greet the 
public and show people what is happening.  Plese let me know 
ifyou will be able to come, and if you have any other ideas about 
things to demonstrate.

Debbie
