Seems copyright fears has caused a site that was of immense value to the visually impaired. Here is a segment of a e-mail I received. [www.RestoreWebBraille.com]
“Essentially the National Library Service For The Blind (NLS) pulled the plug on a service called Web Braille that allowed only authenticated users to download Braille files in a BRF format of books and magazines in the NLS library collection. These files are readable on devices with refreshable Braille displays or other text-to-speech enabled players. While NLS has not released any official reason for the cessation of service, it is believed it is due to fears about copyright restrictions.”
As being blind my self (blind in one eye due to an accident) and learning braille not because I had to I wanted to not like I have to use it but I know the benifit it is to Blind people. I can’t believe ‘The Blind NLS’ would do something like that. I will be emailing them with my own two cents.
