Dear Debra, I remember working with a student on a knitting pattern, as well as someone trying to read the guitar "notation", which is a grid representing the strings and a small "boxy" thing marking which string to hold down. I see that you're doing bookshare proofing - do you know Rob Turner at Bookshare?
