FIND command- Access Information in Books FAST 
The way blind people can find information in books has changed dramatically.

Years ago, a blind child would sit in class with the multiple volumes of
 braille books in front of them, which is great if they actually got 
them. But if a teacher asks the class to open up to page 243 in the 
novel, "Of Mice and Men" it takes the blind students many minutes to 
thumb through the correct volume, then to find the correct page.
