Greetings from Anaheim!
Good news: I may be able to help out if you still need worksheets transcribed
by August 23.
A little background: I have worked as a school transcriber at the high school
level for 22 years, and am proficient in Nemeth, science, foreign language, and
literary braille codes with textbook formatting. I have yet to pursue Nemeth
and Textbook certification, but I am literary certified. I am aware of the
changes in the braille code, having recently attended CTEBVI (San Francisco)
and NBA (St. Louis).
While I cannot commit to much after August 23, I can transcribe until then, if
the need still exists.
I look forward to hearing from you!

To all concerned:
We are looking for transcribers with a fair knowledge of textbook, and literary
Braille formats. We do have some work that involves graphics used in some
biology worksheets. Most of the graphics can be reproduced on your computer,
such as straight line drawings, and dots.
For those who may be interested in the materials with some, very limited amount
of biology symbols, such as superscripts, and capital letters or number
combinations only, let us know as well. This does however require some
knowledge of Nemeth.
For those of you who like the challenge of graphics let us know. We do have
some graphics needed.
If you enjoy foreign language we have one or two small books in Spanish.
Most of the worksheets are comprised of 2-8 single sided print pages. We will
do the embossing here. We have the files available as PDFs and or Word
Documents. We also have the hardcopies.
The deadline for these is August 23, 2013. Call or E-mail if you are
interested.
Please copy your E-mail or E-mail direct to info@xxxxxxxx. You may however
call the number below if you want.
