Braille literacy skills are essential for success in school and employment and for independence throughout life (Ryles, 1996, 2000; Schroeder, 1996). Because of the fundamental importance of well-developed literacy skills, the braille code by which persons who are blind or have low vision attain full literacy should be one that is easy and efficient to learn, use, and produce.
