Hi everyone!
Any bracketed text I find in a book I leave it there, since I reason that
the author intended it for some reason.

Hi Lori,
If I were doing the book I would delete the brackets because those words
do not have brackets in them in the Bible. Since it is quoting the Bible,
that would seem appropriate. Just my opinion though.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Question about Bracketed Letters
Hi, Everyone,
In a book I am proofreading, there are some quotations from the Bible.
All of the quotations begin and end with a quotation mark.
In a few of these quotations, the first letter is surrounded with
brackets; the letter is the first letter of a word, i.e. "[C]ast your
cares upon Him."
I don't really understand why the letter is bracketed; for braille reading
sake should I remove the brackets? Or since they are truly part of the
book, should I leave them in place?
Thanks.
Lori C.
