Now if it was a National Braille Press book, they don't get proof read, so perhaps it was one of those. Who knows. Shelley L.

I don't know if this is unusual, or if I'm just more tuned into this type of thing now and didn't notice before. But I found some definite scanning errors in a book I was reading from web braille. Did you bum that, instead of did you burn that? And dean laundry, instead of clean laundry. Definite scanner errors. I don't know how I thought NLS books were produced but I didn't really think the originals were scanned. Pam -- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
