Caption from CNIB Annual report 1938: If a book is worth reading in letter press, it is worth reading in Braille. Those responsible for the selection of books transcribed into Braille decided that blind readers should have an opportunity to read “Gone with the Wind”. The reader shown is Miss Mary Edwards one of the Institute stenographic staff and one of the most active patrons of the Library. She was the first person in Canada to read “Gone with the Wind” in Braille. It is estimated that in reading “Gone with the Wind” the reader's fingers must travel eight and one-half miles.
