Where I work if we send out just a few sheets we put a piece of cardboard in the large envelope to help protect and stiffen.

Technically the free matter for the blind regulations require that any Braille material not be sealed. The Post Office is supposed to be able to easily look at it, to insure it is Braille. So, for example if you put pages in a large manila envelope you should fold in the flap not seal it shut.

In practice most post offices will accept sealed Braille, but not always!
