- History/Provenance:
- The Third Reader Level of the Patterns Library Series was released as a new product of the American Printing House for the Blind (APH) in May 1985 and was discontinued in 2012. The Patterns Library Series was designed to supplement Patterns: The Primary Braille Reading Program, with books that corresponded in level content, color, and size to those in the reading program. Kit was transferred in 2019 to the Museum of the American Printing House for the Blind (APH) from the APH Research Department, where it had been stored with project materials of Eleanor Pester.
