There used to be a manual for Grade III; I'm thinking maybe the American 
Printing House put it out. I had a teacher somewhere in my teens who thought 
Grade III was the bees' knees and I must, absolutely must learn it. I 
understand that there are books produced using it, but most people I know use a 
smattering of it in their personal note taking (my boss being one.)

Hello All:

Pardon my ignorance regarding this but, what is grade 3 Braille used for and 
where can I acquire the material to learn it?
