[nabs-l] Looking to Borrow/Obtain Braille Material

[Ashley Bramlett]

Hi,

Awesome you are learning braille being sighted.  Check the American Printing 
house for the blind or American foundation for the blind for buying 
matterials.  I think they have matterials geared toward the sighted learning 
braille.
