Hi Mike
I'm somewhat amazed you saying that RNIBs selection of braille books is not
very good. They clearly won't offer the numerous titles people reading print
can access at their local library but they still have quite a comprehensive
choice in my oppinion. might your thoughts be based on what they have available
in unified english braille? If so, this is hardly surprising as we are very
early in its use and our move from standard english braille.
