Hi All,

EBU Onkyo Braille Essay Contest



The European Blind Union (EBU) has launched the 2011 European Braille essay
contest, run by the EBU on behalf of Onkyo Co. Ltd. and the Braille
Mainichi. The competition aims to promote the use of Braille as a key to
access to information and social inclusion for people who are blind or
vision impaired. 



The contest theme is "Braille literacy changes my way of life". Through
personal experience, candidates should explain how Braille improves their
daily lives. All Braille users residing in a European country may take part
in the contest, regardless of age.



Candidates should submit an essay of not more than 1,000 words in paper or
digital Braille, including your name, age, country and number of words.
First prize wins US$2,000, with four other small prizes. 



Please submit entries by Monday 30th May 2011 to NCBI Library and Media
Centre, Unit 29, Finglas Business Centre, Jamestown Road, Finglas, Dublin 11
or email library@xxxxxxxx
