Resolution 2024-02 - NLS and Spelling of Authors’ Names

Submitted by Paul Edwards

Whereas, the National Library Service (NLS) includes spelling the names of authors discussed in the New York Times Book Review; and

Whereas, there are several other NLS-produced magazines in audio format which incorporate book reviews;

Now, therefore, be it resolved by the American Council of the Blind in convention assembled virtually, that this organization and its special-interest affiliate, Library Users of America, request that the NLS extend the policy begun with the New York Times Book Review and apply it to other audio publications where there are book reviews; and

Be it further resolved that this would include at least Bookmarks, Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine, Analog, Asimov's, the Atlantic and the New Yorker.
