Ahead of International White Cane Day, which was marked on October 15, the Accessible Map of China and Accessible Map of the World were unveiled at the China Braille Library.

It was the first large-scale release of accessible maps of China and the world. The maps use digital Braille printing technology, with tactile features marking provincial divisions and major landmarks on the China map, and distinct textures representing continents and oceans on the world map. Both publishers followed national geographic standards and Braille conventions to ensure accurate and inclusive transmission of geographic knowledge.

On the same day, the Palace Museum and the China Disabled Persons' Federation also launched tactile books "Touch the Treasures of the Palace Museum" and "Touching Along the River During Qingming Festival."

The books reproduce cultural relics through raised textures, Braille and audio guides, allowing visually impaired readers to experience the artifacts' historical and cultural significance through multiple senses.
