On FOCAL POINT:

• Sonali Marathe has just completed seven years as President of the Round Table on Information Access for People with Print Disabilities. Sonali shares highlights; achievements,; changes in technology and; the enormous increase in availability of access to more titles. She speaks glowingly about the many involved with the work the Round Table is doing. 
• Kate Stephens is the only person, we believe, in Australia using the B-Book braille computer from Euro Braille. The Computer runs Windows.
• Dr Annmaree Witharow is the first person who is deafblind to do a medical degree at Sydney University.  Annmaree has added another 5 degrees since then.
• Phil Vandepeer, co-founder and co-presenter for Focal Point, spoke about the situation with the Bedford Group; the role of organisations like them, their importance and role in the community and stressing their importance in towns like Mt. Gambier.  Phil also reflected on the beginning of the 48th Parliament of Australia.
