I agree. 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.

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.

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.
