The board of Publications invites you to participate in our first ever Forum on the Forum. Over the past several years, the BOP has made some pretty significant changes to the ACB Braille Forum and to the ACB E-Forum. We have increased the size of the magazine. We have made "themes" a regular part of the magazine. We have tried to encourage new writers to contribute to the publication. Join us to talk about your magazine. What do you like about it? What do you not like about it? What would you like to see changed? Do you like the "themes? Are there regular features you think we should include that aren't there now? These are just some of the questions we hope you will join us to discuss.
