Hi Annette,
No, not quite. I think you're confusing the braille number sign which is as
you say, dots 3456. That hasn't changed. What is being talked about is the
print number sign or crosshatch. Formerly, this symbol was dot 4 followed by
3456. Now it is 456 3456. This sign formerly was not part of literary
braille, but now it is.

I'm not sure what this discussion is about. Is there a change in the
literary braille regarding the number sign? The number sign has always been
3456, but you are saying to put a 456 which is a type of indicator, and then
1456 which is the t h sign, and then the number sign. When is this used? In
all literary braille?

The new symbol for the number sign, as of January 2008, is dots 456, 1456.
So, for #1, you would write 456, 1456, 3456, 1. This is according to North
American rules.
