See if this works for you to look their library. 

http://www.prcvi.org/visualimpairment/file_download.html
Corel and Braille Download Files
PRCVI's Corel Tactile Thumbnail Lists and Download Option
Click on each link and download to computer (it would not open without)
Looks like if you can download with a password, you could search by title. 
Sadly, according to table of contents - no math.
