I had long dreamed of a Braille newspaper, and with the integration of Newsline into the unit with automatic sync, I have just that. I was kind of ho-hum on the device a month or two ago, but the update has been a game changer.</div><div><br></div><div>Wes</div><div><br></div><div><br><br><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPhone</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Jun 10, 2021, at 8:14 AM, Bob Ray via Tall-Corn <tall-corn@nfbnet.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)"><style><!--

It may a be a good idea for all of us to ask other blind people here in the state if they know about this project. I find it interesting that the library was given 243 units for this project and they still have approximately 75 of them just taking up space on the shelf. If you talk to someone that might be interested but is afraid to try it let them know that there are several volunteers that would be more than happy to help them get started.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">All that is required to be eligible for the program is to be a Braille user that is registered with the Iowa Library. There is no cost involved and no complex forms to fill out.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Braille reading is very important to all of us and I know of at least one person that finds using an electronic Braille device easier to read than hard copy paper. Yes, there is a learning curve with it but there are any number of us throughout the state that would be glad to help get you stated.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">If you have any questions please feel free to ask.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Bob Ray<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"> <a href="mailto:rjray@q.com">rjray@q.com</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">or<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">landline 515-334-7231<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p></div><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>Tall-Corn mailing list</span><br><span>Tall-Corn@nfbnet.org</span><br><span>http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/tall-corn_nfbnet.org</span><br><span>To unsubscribe, change your list options or get your account info for Tall-Corn:</span><br><span>http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/tall-corn_nfbnet.org/wmajerus%40gmail.com</span><br></div></blockquote></div></body></html>
