[nfb-talk] Cassette Players and Magazines

Sat Apr 16 17:33:51 UTC 2011

And if you want really old issues, you need to go to archive.org, which has
the Braille Monitors prior to, I thinkk, 1980.  The NFB tenBroek librarian
had this organization do the heavy lifting of making these older issues
available to us -- with many thanks for this blind historian!

Joshua:

With respect, how about showing a bit of initiative.  Have you gone to the
NFB site and done a search for "Braille Monitor" and "subscription"?

Having mildly skewered you, here's how you can find the instructions.

Go to the NFB website, thence to the "Publications" link, thence to the
"Braille Monitor" link -- it's the first Level One header on the
Publications page -- and on the page which is loaded when you click on that
link is a link to subscribe to the email version.  Use your screen-reader's
Find command to get to that link.
