Won't it be better if books are digital? The Braille representations of characters map to ASCII characters used in digitising books. If you wanted to create a Braille version of a paper book, you'd have to OCR it, or have someone transcribe. If it's a digital book, the work is already done.
Plus, there are e-readers that can read digital representations of books vocally, but not so much paper books.
