Whereas AEBC believes that library services should be integrated into the public library system; and

Whereas AEBC supports blindness services being removed from charity when possible; and

Whereas AEBC is a partner organization in the federal funding received by NNELS to increase book production capacity;

And whereas in Resolution 2009-04 AEBC recognizes the obligation of publishers to provide accessible formats;

Be it resolved that AEBC supports a book distribution system that can be fully integrated in to the public library systems, and

Be it further resolved that AEBC continue to encourage NNELS and CELA to help build capacity in the publishing industry to provide accessible books directly to public libraries and other institutions needing to purchase accessible materials.
