    If I have a capitalized passage with a number/letter combination within it, how do I indicate the letter is not a number?

    THE MEETING WILL BE HELD IN ROOM 112.B THIS AFTERNOON

    Do I use a capital letter sign (even though the passage is already in caps) or a grade 1 indicator?

    Thank you in advance

    Hi Kelly,

    This is an  interesting question! I'm consulting with the UEB Committee and will get back to you.

    Regards,

    Hi Kelly,

    We recommend using a capital indicator before the B rather than a grade 1 indicator. A grade 1 indicator is usually used for lower case letters a-j after a numeral, so the capital B could easily be confused with a lower-case B.

    Braille on,

    Julie
