[Nfbf-l] French books in braille?

[Sherrill O'Brien]

Hi Nallym,

Many moons ago, I took French in college, and read a couple French short
novels. I would think that the National Library Service would at least have
a few. They have a foreign language specialist if you want to call and try
to speak with him. He spoke at national convention last year, but I didn't
save his name like I should have.
I wonder if we are able to borrow books from Canada. CNIB (Canadian National
Institute for the Blind) might be able to help. I'm sure Quebec would have
tons of them, but whether they're for loan here I don't know.

Wish I could be of more help. I minored in French, but it's been a long time
since I've read anything. My French accent's still pretty good though.

I'll think about this some more, and perhaps come up with something more
substantial for you after convention.

Sherrill

Good afternoon everyone,
I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a hold of braille
books written in French? At this point I don't really care what the
subject matter is, I just really need some way of enforcing the
vocabulary and grammer I have learned, so novels, short stories,
reference books, it doesn't matter. I can seem to find Spanish books
everywhere and French Audio, but no braille.
Thanks in advance, and have a great day!
Sincerely,
Nallym Bravo
