Hey! Kirt, this is Helga. I'm sorry for asking this dumb question. What do 
you mean when you say use a TA as a test reader? I'm just curious what the 
word TA mean? I actually never heard of the word abrebiation. Also, I just 
would like to ask you, Do you know where can I get a Dux Bury program and a 
Braille printer that is compatibel with the BrailleNote apex for a cheap 
price? The Reason I'm asking is because I like to read Braille because is my 
prefer way of reading especially when I'm reading stories that are hard to 
understand the wording. I'm actually doing an English major where I need to 
take Literature classes that involve a lot of reading. Actually, this 
semester I took American Literature before 1865, and it was very challenging 
for me because the only accessable format of the Book  that DSS provided me 
was PDF format, and and I got a audio cd from Learning Ally. It was helpful, 
but not enough to understand the stories since my first Language is not 
English, even though I speak it, I'm still working on my comprehension of 
words. I also talked to my DBS counceler about this and she told me that she 
would not buy me the Braille printer because is very expensive. I really 
Think a Braille paper copy of a reading will really help me a lot since I'm 
thinking in taking American Literature after 1865 in the Fall semester. 
Thanks for listening to me. I really appreciate it. God bless! :)
