We shall continue to use the former heading as a sub-heading for the purpose of continuity in libraries and to identify ourselves as to origin. The reason for a name change is in fact a recognition that the automatic generation of braille depends, from the point of view of optimal design, upon a consideration of the changes that eventually will occur in the braille code as a natural result of continual review by braille authorities to keep the code up-to-date.

The planned revision will be the most extensive since the publication of the second edition in 1978. The new edition will incorporate a significantly expanded general introduction, revised and expanded introductions to parts I and II, and an introduction to a new part III, which together will articulate the principles underlying the design of the rules and provide a conceptual framework for their application. Part I will be reorganized to facilitate a more efficient application of the rules for description as they pertain to aspects of content and medium. Part II will be restructured to simplify the use of rules pertaining to the choice of access points, and to facilitate the application of general rules in circumstances not addressed by specific rules.

    An Investigation into the Commonalities of Students Who Are Braille Readers in a Southwestern State Who Possess Comprehensive Literacy Skills by Bertha Avila Guerrero, MEd A Dissertation In Special Education Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Texas Tech University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF EDUCATION Approved Nora Griffin-Shirley, PhD Co-chair of Committee Rona Pogrund, PhD Co-chair of Committee Lee Deumer, PhD Committee Member Mark Sheridan, PhD Dean of the Graduate School August, 2017 Copyright © August, 2017, Bertha Avila Guerrero Texas Tech University, Bertha Avila Guerrero, August 2017 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, I extend my eternal gratitude to my Prince of Peace, my blue- eyed Jesus, who instilled in me a love of learning and a desire to achieve more than what was expected of me. Two phenomenal women were my first introduction to what an extraordinary teacher of students with visual impairments (TVI) should be. Adalaide Ratner, who planted the seed of literacy in me at an early age, thank you for showing me that my future would be limited without the dots. Thanks to Ora Potter who watered the seed and propelled me further into independence with her encouragement and no-nonsense attitude about blindness. I am grateful for my beautiful Little Lady Godiva who patiently waited through endless hours at the library and lying on her favorite chair in my study while I worked; never complaining when the embosser woke her up and never grumbling about the late nights and early mornings. I thank Amador, my husband, my friend, research assistant, and driver, with all my heart and soul.

  • A TEACHER's PRAYER Lord, I Thank Thee for the Chance to Work at A
    A TEACHER'S PRAYER Lord, I thank Thee for the chance to work at a task that makes the hours so full. Let me use those hours to guide the precious lives entrusted to my care in ways of good- ness. Help me to be calm in the face of disturbance, kind to all regardless of circumstance, tolerant when under- standing is lacking, and faithful in duties great and small. I pray for the strength of mind and body to do what is expected of me without losing my willing spirit. For- give the mistakes I made this day, and give me wisdom to correct them. In the name of the Great Teacher, I pray. Amen. --Frances H Butler MY CODE I have to live with myself, and so I want to be fit for myself to know. I want to be able, as days go by, Always to look myself straight, in the eye. I don't want to stand, with the setting sun, And hate myself for the things I've done. I want to go out with my head erect; I want to deserve all men's respect: But here in the struggle for fame and pelf, I want to he able to like myself. I don't want to look at myself and know That I'm bluster and bluff and empty show. I never can fool myself, and so Whatever happens, I want to be Self-respecting and conscience free. Author unknown.
