[nabs-l] Braille Highlighters?

[winona]

Hi Brandon,

In English class and sometimes with my Braille music, I use 
Graphing tape by FIMC.  It is like masking tape but it's thin 
enough to fit in between the braille lines.  But the big problem 
with it is that it takes to much time to put the tape on the 
page.

Hope this helps,

Winona

Brandon,
One thing which might work is putting placemarkers in your books.  
If
you're reading books on the BrailleNote, you can insert 
placemarkers
at the beginning of important paragraphs/sentences that you'll 
need
later.  Then, when you go back later, you can jump directly to 
that
particular placemarker.
Another suggestion you might try is this.  If you're working with
hardcopy Braille books, put a paperclip on the top of the page 
that
you'll need for later.  Then you'll open directly to that page 
and
you'll know that the paragraph you need is right in front of you.  
Like
Arielle, I find highlighting to be pretty useless.  If I take 
notes on
a book, I always just use a separate document.  Well, hope that 
helped.

 Hello,
 No, I'm looking for something that I can use with Braille.  
Audio is not
 something I can read aloud very easy or mark silently and 
quickly which is
 what I need to constantly be doing.
 Thank you,

 Can you get the audio version of the book as well? A player like 
the Victor

 reader stream will allow you to highlight things in audio 
format.  You can
 even put a voice note to remind you of what the section is 
about.  This may
 be handy while reading along in braille.  Another option I used 
to do is put

 paperclips on a specific section of Braille material.  
Unfortunately, this
 may get confusing because like with the dots, there'd be a lot 
of
 paperclips.

 Hello,
 I am wondering if any kind of Braille highlighter has been 
invented yet?
 Something that could change the texture of the page while still 
keeping
 the Braille readable?
 This has been something that all my teachers have been telling 
me to do
 with my Braille books and music, as of now it is either write 
notes in
 another device that may crash, or put not really accurate dots 
that can
 fall off on the spot I want to mark.  (Not to menschen that 
becomes a lot
 of dots after a while).
 So if anyone has ever encountered a Braille highlighter please 
let me
 know!
 Thank you,

 Brandon Keith Biggs
