I understand about the immune system issue.  I have issues that aren?t quite
that severe, however, I contract MRSA a few years ago and went through
several years of not being able to be anywhere around a place where someone
touched who might be carrier and so this is not surprising to me.

 

Ok, as a matter of fact, try National Braille Press still, they have books
in Braille in an e-format, check them out online at:

Sharon:

 

Should have mentioned that I live and work in Ottawa Canada.

 

Due to an impaired immune system, I can't use Braille books that someone
else has touched. I'm looking for something that I can print out myself and
use. 

 

PS, this is not a phobia but a real life concern.

James, try National Braille Press for some books in grade 1 (uncontracted
Braille). They might have some for people just learning?  Also, if you want
to check, the Lutheran Braille Workers produce Bibles in uncontracted, or
they used to, if that?s of interest to you.

Hello all:

 

Nearly twenty years ago I was taught grade one Braille and I've rarely used
it since.

 

Aside from printing out the alphabet is there any other means to allow me to
practice my Braille?

 

I'm thinking like simple kids books that have already been translated.
