BRAILLE DICTIONARY

Douglas College has received a braille

edition of the Webster's Student Dictionary.

 

Ihe Dictionary, which comes in 36 volumes,
wat, donated by Sid Keenan of Langley in
memory of his wife Rennie.

Mrs. Keenan became blind as an adult due to
diabetes. Blindness did not stop her
education. She continued to study French

and Spanish and learn braille. Mrs. Keenan
also toured schools, educating students
about blindness and helping them feel at
ease around blind people.

There are three students currently enrolled
al the College who will appreciate easy
access to the Dictionary. Braille users
from the community are also welcome to use
lhe Dictionary which will be located in the
library. Sid Keenan hopes that by placing
Ihe Dictionary in the library, many blind
people will have access to a book most
blind people do not own. The College has
heen very fortunate to be the recipient of
this gift.
