Unlike an inline (or in-text) quotations, which are integrated into the text, a block quotation is a longer quotation set off from surrounding text by paragraph breaks. These should be tagged using the Blockquote (DAISY) style.
Block quotations are commonly seen as quotations in epigraphs, books reviews or endorsements, and as long quotations taken from other sources within the body of the text. Block quotations may have an author associated with the quotation, which should be marked using the Author (DAISY) style.
Text-to-speech software will usually declare Quote

before and after reading text marked up as block quotations.
