Hi, Shannon. You can read books from Web braille if you have a program like 
Kurzweil...I'm sure OpenBook does, too...but if you have a program that can 
open .brf files, you can read them on the computer. Take care.

Tiffany,
I apologise for the goose chase. I really thought that there was something
missing. They don't usually leav you standing on your ear like that. She
usually does a little bit at the end to sum up the loose ends. This one kind
of left me hanging.

I appreciate your help. Again I  am sorry for the goose chase.

I don't know anything about Web Brail. I don't know how to read brail so I
have never looked into that site. Are they books like bookshare's that I can
read them on the computer if I don't have one of those brail displays?
Shannon
