All you're doing is pointing people to _sources_ and it's up to those persons to determine whether or not they qualify to receive materials from those sources. Since qualifications and requirements are always subject to change with any such organization, I don't feel that it's APH's responsibility to track and list them. ----- Original Message ----- From: "LARRY SKUTCHAN" <lskutchan@xxxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, April 19, 2006 8:24 AM Subject: [bookport] Re: Suggestion for Manual Change Maybe we should just leave the manual as it is with respect to this issue. Each organization has its policies and regulations, and I don't think we want to be in the business of keeping up with each of them. >>> DogRiver@xxxxxxxx Tuesday, April 18, 2006 6:07:24 PM >>> I never said anything about citizenship. According to the American Heritage Dictionary, an American is "a native or *inhabitant* of America". So my statement is in fact correct. Bruce
