braille books
Dot-raised reading material
Books printed in braille, the tactile writing system of raised dots that blind and visually impaired readers decode by touch.
The dots form patterns representing letters, numbers, and punctuation.
Braille books are considerably bulkier than print editions—a single novel may fill several volumes: The library's braille books section takes up an entire wing.
