Changes to NLS Magazines

There are a few changes to the NLS magazine service beginning this week.

The New York Times Book Review will now be offered in Braille as well as audio format. This publication will replace the Braille edition of the Washington Post Book World. The Book World is no longer being produced.

Parenting magazine has recently begun to publish as two separate magazines: Parenting: Early Years and Parenting: School Years. Current subscribers will automatically receive both editions unless they contact their library to discontinue one or both editions.

U.S. News & World Report is now publishing their news segments exclusively online and the monthly publication is only a consumer guide. Because of this change, the audio format of U.S. News & World Report can no longer be produced. Subscribers to this magazine will automatically receive the replacement magazine, The Week, a weekly news magazine.

If you are subscribed to any of these magazines and wish to make changes to your account, please call the Talking Book Center at 1-800-531-2063.
