[nabs-l] Harry Potter Braille Books Needed

[Chris Nusbaum]

Hi, Terri.

I know that all the Harry Potter books are available through the 
National Braille Press (NBP.) You can go to www.nbp.org to get 
more info.  I'm sure they would be happy to donate to Camp 
Tusmehetta! I've seen a couple posts to the list that Dave 
Andrews has forwarded to us from the NBP Announce list.  So maybe 
you could contact Dave and he might be able to get you in touch 
with his connections at NBP.  By the way, I read the article 
about Camp Tussmeheta in the Braille Monitor and it sounds like a 
wonderful camp! Good for you and keep up the great work!

Hello:
    I am Terri Wilcox, Secretary of the National Federation of 
the Blind of Michigan.  My husband and I have the privilege of 
leading
the Braille Camp this year at Camp Tuhsmeheta.  Most of the 
students who attend are between twelve and eighteen years old.  
Most, but
not all know Braille.  Our emphasis is primarily on improving 
Braille reading speed.  Our library at Camp Tuhsmeheta has many 
books
for young children, but not many for this age range.  Do any of 
you have, or know where I can obtain Braille books in the Harry
Potter series for this camp.  I would like to send every student 
home with one hard copy Braille book that they can keep for
themselves.  If anyone has books they would be willing to donate, 
please contact me at
trising at sbcglobal.net
If you have books that we could borrow but would need them back, 
please also contact me at the email address above.
Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

Terri Wilcox
Secretary, National Federation of the Blind of Michigan
Ann Arbor Chapter President
