●●● UNIVERSAL ENGLISH BRAILLE ●●●
COMING SOON: The UEB
Universal English Braille
SHIPPING: Our braille materials are usually shipped
“Free Matter for the Blind” for no charge. However,
people in the Continental US may select UPS for a
charge of 15% ($9.50 minimum). “Free Matter” often
takes 1 to 3 weeks in the US and about 4 to 8 weeks to
foreign destinations, and it cannot be traced.
In November 2012, the Braille Authority of
North America (BANA) voted to adopt the
Universal English Braille Code (UEB) as the
official code for the United States. We will
now join several other countries (Canada and
Australia, for example) who adopted the new
code before us. While the implementation
date is scheduled for January 4, 2016, we will
begin making the conversion to the new code
in 2015.
UNCONTRACTED VS. CONTRACTED BRAILLE:
Uncontracted Braille is the simplest form of braille. It
consists of a symbol for each letter of the alphabet and
a few for punctuation. In Contracted Braille, several
dozen special symbols (contractions and short forms)
are added to make the books shorter and reading
faster.
Our plan is to start with our books for younger
children and work our way up to our bigger
books. We will be sure to mark the books that
are UEB-compliant. Please bear with us
during this process!

SEEDLINGS’ HISTORY
CATALOG AVAILABLE IN BRAILLE
In 1984, Debra Bonde established Seedlings Braille
Books for Children as a non-profit organization
because she found that braille materials were scarce
and expensive. Her goals were to increase the
availability and lower the cost of braille books for
children in order to promote their literacy skills and
their love of reading.
Seedlings’ 2015 catalog is available in
braille, free of charge, for those who need
it. To order a braille copy, simply email
Seedlings: [email protected] or call tollfree: 800-777-8552.
●●● ●●● ●●● ●●● ●●● ●●● ●●● ●●●
Since then, Seedlings has placed over 400,000 braille
books into the hands of children
across the U.S., Canada, and
several other countries.

The Seedlings catalog is available as a textfile on

OTHER WAYS TO HELP
HOW YOU CAN HELP
Tribute Gifts
“Together we can do
so much”
—
For every $10 you donate, a book can
be inscribed in honor or in memory of a
loved one. Several of our supporters
have suggested donations to Seedlings
in lieu of gifts for their birthday,
wedding anniversary, and retirement celebrations.
It’s a gift that gives twice! If you would like to
make a tribute gift, please indicate this below:

Since Seedlings sells its books at
a significant loss, people who kindly donate
their time and/or money make it possible for
so much to be done. Every $10 gift we
receive makes another book possible.
If you wish to volunteer, please call 734-4278552 or 800-777-8552, or you can email:
