     10. Transcriber's Notes Page:   Include a transcriber's notes page following the title page and special symbols page, if there is one, in each braille volume noting a special braille format or usage required throughout the volume. Use the following format in preparing a transcriber's notes page:

      a.  Begin a new braille page and center the heading TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES followed by one blank line. On the second and succeeding pages, center the heading TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES (cont.) without a blank line following.

      b.  Braille each note beginning in cell 3 with runover lines in cell 1.
