As the leading international, interdisciplinary journal of record on blindness and visual impairment, JVIB gives you the information you need to stay current on news, trends, research developments, best practices, and critical issues.
JVIB publishes a wide range of peer-reviewed articles on research and practice and serves as a forum for the exchange of ideas, airing of controversies, and discussion of relevant issues. More of the low vision literature today is published in JVIB than in any other journal.
Get New Information on Practice "Practice Perspectives" is an exciting new column edited by Dr. Jane Erin that appears several times through the year and highlights professional practice issues and concerns and the techniques and strategies used by practitioners throughout the field.
Celebrate Louis Braille JVIB is celebrating the 200th anniversary of the birth of Louis Braille by featuring essays by notable members of the field of visual impairment and blindness in the United States and abroad throughout 2009. Edited by special guest editor Dr. Susan Spungin, engaging articles appear each month on such topics as teaching braille in public schools and online, braille translation technology and its impact on literacy, personal reflections about the effect braille can have on young students who are blind, and the Unified English Braille Code.
