> The Braille code changed on January 4, 2016! Published materials (including NLS Braille books and textbooks used by New York State students) now use the Unified English Braille code. This interactive workshop will explain what’s new, including important adjustments to contractions, punctuation, formatting and transcription rules. Students, teachers and readers of Braille can participate in this workshop to gain an understanding of what’s changing and why; hands-on experience with the specific changes that will impact most readers; and resources to study and learn more about UEB. Register with ChanceyFleet at NYPL.org or call (212) 621-0627.
