The current rules are found in Braille Formats. Rule 1, Section 14b See _http://www.brl.org/formats/rule01.html_ (http://www.brl.org/formats/rule01.html) or obtain a copy from APH (Catalog #: 7-09652-00 Price: $30.00) Snip Text pages. All pages of text in the braille edition (including prefaces, forewords, and introductions) should carry consecutive braille page numbers starting with arabic 1 in the first volume. In subsequent volumes, pages of text may be numbered consecutively from volume to volume. However, if a text is transcribed jointly by several braillists or if the braille volumes of a print text are transcribed out of normal sequence, the first page of text in each volume should begin with arabic 1.

The bindery in which I volunteer has a question that seems to be controversial. When a book is more than one volume what are the current rules. Should each volume begin again with the number 1 or should the second volume begin with the logical number that would have followed the last page of the first volume. If you could also cite the place where the ruling is printed that would be helpful. I am in the US so the rules that apply here would be the rules that would follow, I guess. Barb
