[nabs-l] Josh's Textbooks

[chris nusbaum]

Hi Peter,

Thank you for the information! That was very helpfull, and a good
resource. I think I got a textbook from Region 20 (or at least
transcribed by them) through the Maryland IRC (Instructional Resource
Center) last year. They do a great job of transcribing textbooks, and
I hope all of you will find their services helpfull!

Chris

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight. The real
problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that exists. If
a blind person has the proper training and opportunity, blindness can
be reduced to a mere physical nuissence." -- Kenneth Jernigan

impaired children in MD say "I can!"
