Braille Transcribers
Most states have private agencies or government agencies that offer
Braille transcribing services. A good place to start is with the National
Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped.

- The Library of
Congress has compiled a directory, available in large print and Braille
formats, which gives the names of volunteer groups and individuals who
transcribe and record books and other reading materials for blind readers.
- The listing is alphabetical by state and is called Volunteers Who Produce
Books. Send for your free copy from the Library of Congress.
