Chinese and American Braille Publications Exchange Exhibition

China Braille Press and China Library for the Blind

 

The Washington Talking Book & Braille Library is pleased to host an
exhibition by the China Braille Press, September 22 - 27, 2015.

 

This exciting exhibit demonstrates both the importance of braille worldwide
and the developing partnerships between China and the United States
regarding services for people who are blind or visually impaired.

 

The exhibition highlights topics such as braille publication in the digital
age, interchange and mutual learning, famous blind people in the United
States and China, exchanges in braille publication of cultural material,
interactions with organizations for the blind and organizations serving the
blind, and much more.

Chinese and American Braille Publications Exchange exhibits will be explored
by touch, sound, and sight. Staff from the China Braille Press and the China
Library for the Blind will be on hand to share the exhibit with you, talk
about their programs, and the potential for growing collaboration and
improved services for the blind. Tours of the Washington Talking Book &
Braille Library will also be available.

 

The exhibition is open from 8:30am - 5:00pm, Monday - Friday, with
additional hours to be announced.  The Washington Talking Book & Braille
Library (WTBBL) is located at 2021 9th Avenue, Seattle, WA 98121. Some
