Free Online Workshop on Electronic Braille Books
Thursday, May 31, 2007
Contact: Amy Ruell at aruell@xxxxxxx

National Braille Press and the Carroll Center for the Blind are pleased
to announce the next offering in a series of free online presentations
(webinars) designed for parents and teachers of children who are
learning to read braille. The presentation will take place from 8:00 pm
to 9:30 pm EDT on Thursday, May 31, 2007, and will focus on electronic
braille files. Participants will learn what these files are, why they
are important, how to obtain them, and how to use them.

Representatives from NBP, National Library Services for the Blind and
Physically Handicapped, American Printing House for the Blind, and
Bookshare.org will showcase the resources available from their
organizations and field questions from participants. This presentation
will use the conference room of the Carroll Center and TC Conference
audio and text chat utility from Talking Communities.

To participate, you will need a Windows-based computer connected to the
internet with Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser. If you want to be
able to talk with the presenters during the question and answer session
you will need a microphone attached to the appropriate jack on your
computer's sound card. If you do not have a microphone, you will still
be able to hear and see what the presenters have to show you. Those
without a microphone can enter their questions as text by using their
keyboards.

To join us on May 31st, point your web browser to:
www.everythingbraille.com

and click on "Our Virtual Classroom." If you have not used the
conferencing software before, you will need to download and install a
very small program first.

To download the software, click on the "Our Virtual Classroom" link, and
then:

1. Click on the "download here" button.
2. When prompted to save or run the software, choose the "run" option.
3. When warned that this file does not have a verified digital
signature, click on the "run" option (this software is perfectly safe).
4. The installation wizard will soon appear and proceed. Simply click
the "finish" button when the plug-in is installed.
5. To enter the conference room, click the "click here to enter the
room" button.
6. When the logon screen appears, enter your full name into the username
box, leave the password field blank, and press the "logon" button.
7. You are now ready to participate in the conference.

If you have additional questions or need more information, please
contact Amy Ruell at NBP by email at aruell@xxxxxxx or by phone at (888)
965-8965 ext. 34.

We look forward to seeing you on the 31st!

Sincerely,

Amy Ruell
Program Manager
