where can i purchase children's braille books in Australia?

I know there are lending libraries. I can't seem to find anyone who sells children's braille books in Australia. I'd like to be able to keep them rater than have to return them afterwards.


The Braille Bookstore is an online shop in Canada - I've included the Contact Us link so you can find out about delivery costs etc. to Australia.
Vision Australia is the primary supplier of lending materials for the vision impaired in Australia so it may be worthwhile contacting them to find out who they get their braille books from.

Have you tried the royal national institute for the blind. I'm sure you could find their website if you googled RNIB or maybe your local library can help.

Do you know of any good computer programs or books that teach Braille?

Resubmitting an earlier question in a different category:

Thanks in advance for your answers.
My 10 year old child was just diagnosed with Stargardt's Macular Dystrophy. I have a Braille alphabet card for her, and she is trying to learn a letter a day, but I have no idea how to put words together, and certainly cannot teach her what I do not know.
When I spoke to the Braille Institute today, they said that they don't typically teach children Braille while they can still see, but I feel that there is no better time to teach them.
So I am wondering if any of you know of any good computer programs, or even a "Braille for Dummies" type of book (myself being the dummy) that my Daughter and I can both learn basic Braille from?
Or, if any of you are familiar with Braille through remote learning, please let me know about your experience with that. For some reason, I can't quite bring myself to trust something that lets me download valuable information for free!
Thanks again!


A good book is A Field Guide for the Sight-Impaired Reader: A Comprehensive Resource for Students, Teachers, and Librarians. There is also a pocket braille cube for learning letters that I've seen used in my classroom (There's an aide that works one on one with a boy with visual impairments) I believe you can get it on Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/Pocket-Braille-Cub e-Learning-Device/dp/B000A3AE3K/ref=pd_b bs_sr_6?ie=UTF8&s=hpc&qid=121003 1439&sr=8-6

If she is in a public school system, chances are, there is a TVI (Teacher of the Visually Impaired) that will have some helpful suggestions.

Good luck!

  • Cataloguing Braille Books for Children « The Cataloguing Librarian

    Parents love to read to their children. Even before a child can read, we share stories through board books which introduce them to stories and word recognition. But what happens when your child is blind, or has a visual impairment?

    Our library has recently been introduced to a collection of books through Seedlings . They take picture books and add a Braille overlay onto the existing text. This collection is new to our library, and will be new to our cataloguing department. A new collection code has to be created, a decision on where the items should be shelved has to be made, and access points need to be considered.

    While I can create access points and a precedent for cataloguing these items (as most of you can as well), I’m hoping to hear from some of you because this is a relatively new collection for libraries. Do any of you have these books in your collections? If so, what type of cataloguing issues have you encountered? What type of feedback have you received?
