Hey listers, it's time to apply for the RFB&D Scholastic Achievement Award 
if you are in your senior year at a four-year US college or university!
March 1 is the deadline to apply; here's our news release on he subject. 
Also check the website, www.rfbd.org

It's a great award and, as past winners can tell you, the party that 
celebrates the awards is lots of fun, too! We have grown to count of NABS 
for a host of dynamite candidates and, of course, winners! Don't put it off; 
do it now before your life gets busier.

Best wishes,


Annemarie Cooke

RECORDING FOR THE BLIND & DYSLEXIC® SPONSORS AWARDS FOR OUTSTANDING STUDENTS 
WITH PRINT DISABILITIES


October 22, 2004 (Princeton, NJ) - Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic 
(RFB&D®) announced its 2005 National Achievement Awards (NAA) program - an 
annual competition for college seniors with visual impairments and high 
school seniors with learning disabilities.

RFB&D's Mary P. Oenslager Scholastic Achievement Awards (SAA) are given 
annually to nine blind or visually impaired seniors at four-year US colleges 
or universities. The Marion Huber Learning Through Listening® (LTL®) awards 
are presented annually to six high school seniors with learning 
disabilities. Awards total more than $50,000. The top three winners in each 
category are recognized at an annual RFB&D celebratory event, and previous 
winners have also been honored by the president at the White House.

The NAA program is open to active RFB&D members who have been registered for 
at least one year prior to the March 1, 2005 deadline - either individually 
or through their school. They should be prepared to demonstrate outstanding 
scholarship, leadership, enterprise and service to others. Applications are 
now available.

For more than 50 years, RFB&D, a nonprofit volunteer organization, has 
served people of all ages who cannot read standard print effectively because 
of visual impairment, dyslexia or other physical disability. RFB&D maintains 
a library of 100,000 recorded textbooks produced by volunteers working in 28 
RFB&D studios across the country. Last year, RFB&D circulated close to a 
quarter of a million titles among its more than 137,000 members.
