System


> Greetings,
>
> I am writing to remind you of the following which appeared as a Miniature 
> in the October 2009 Braille Monitor.  The original time frame has been 
> adjusted, but the samplers/surveys will be available very shortly.  If you 
> are willing to help and have not already done so, please read and act on 
> the following:
>
> Attention Braille Users:
> The Braille Authority of North America (BANA) is looking for Braille 
> readers, teachers, and transcribers to assist with an evaluation of the 
> Nemeth Uniform Braille System (NUBS), an experimental Braille code 
> designed to represent literary, math, and scientific 
> information--combining all three codes into one unified system. 
> Participants will be asked to read a sampler written in NUBS and to 
> respond to questions about their reading experience. (The sampler will be 
> available in both embossed Braille and sim-Braille.) Anyone who reads or 
> writes Braille, no matter what age or amount of experience reading or 
> writing Braille, is welcome to take part in this project. If you are 
> interested in participating, you may request a sampler in one of three 
> ways:
>
> .By sending an email to <Brailleauthority at gmail.com>;
> .By sending a print or Braille letter to Judy Dixon,1805 N. Oakland 
> Street, Arlington, VA 22207; or
> .By calling Judy Dixon at               (202) 707-0722.
>
> Whichever method you use to request your sampler, please include your name 
> and mailing address and whether you want the sampler in embossed Braille 
> or in sim-Braille.
> ...
> All participants who complete the questionnaire will be informed how to 
> get access to the evaluation report when it is complete. If you are 
> interested in helping with this project or if you have questions, please 
> contact Judy Dixon, BANA chair, at <jdix at loc.gov> or               (202)
