Braille, part 1						updated 8-14-2001

This is the 1st of 3 pages of citations to works in Braille; it includes citations beginning with
the letters A-F.  For other parts of the alphabet, choose G-Q, or R-Z.

	Braille is a system of raised dots, based on a pattern or "cell" of 6 dots, 2 across
and 3 down.  Each letter has a pattern, plus punctuation and some letter combinations have
their own patterns.  Braille is intended for use by blind and visually-impaired persons. "Grade
1 Braille" is letter for letter, transcribed into Braille.  "Grade 1 and 1/2 Braille" includes
a few contractions or abbreviations, while "Grade 2 Braille" uses a number of contractions.
Standard Braille, as used by blind Americans, is written in Grade 2.  It was developed by
Louis Braille.  There are also jumbo Braille and micro-braille now, being larger and smaller
as their names imply.  A standard Braille cell is 1/8" x 1/4".  Braille is produced by pushing
up the bumps from the back of the paper; this may be done either by hand (using a Braille slate
and stylus) or by any of several machines.  If printed or "pressed" by an automatic machine,
it may be called "press braille."

	PLEASE NOTE THAT IT IS THE POLICY OF THE MONTANA STATE LIBRARY FOR THE BLIND
AND PHYSICALLY HANDICAPPED THAT ALL BRAILLE MATERIALS FOR LOAN TO THOSE MONTANANS
QUALIFIED FOR SUCH MATERIALS BE HANDLED BY THEM.  In fact, many of these Braille items
actually come from Denver, Colorado.  We, do, however, have some Braille items.  If you need such
materials, check also in the Accessibility Center, on Level 2, which has items not included in
our Library's catalogs.
	PLEASE NOTE ALSO THAT unless otherwise noted, items listed below are in Grade
2 Braille.
