Hi Susan.  I should have clarified my note better.  The book I am scanning
is not a textbook.  It's a nonfiction book, Christian to be exact.  As for
your other questions, I'm not sure what the answers would be.  

 

Thanks,  

 

Monica

Hi Monica,

 

I believe there are several questions here:

 

Is your book considered a textbook? If so, should  we format it as textbook
Braille? If it's not considered a textbook, do we format it as we would for
literary Braille? And, for the last question, do we format it for print
and/or for braille readers? As with several other issues, this may be a case
of where some sort of compromise is necessary. Thanks for reading and
considering this matter carefully! 

 

Susan

Hello list members.  I had a question about footnotes.  In the current book
I scanned am reading for class, it has the footnote numbers written like
this- there a word, followed by a period and then a number 1 for the first
footnote.  I wondered, how would I accurately represent this. For example,
would I put a space after the period and enclose the number 1 in
parentheses?  I'm not sure how to handle this.  

 

Also, at the end of the book there's a chapter called End Notes ehich
explains what these numbers refer to for each chapter.  Thanks again as
always.
