Some Organizational Accounts Are Now Permitted to Participate in ER

Hi All! I know that some questions were raised, when the redesigned ER launched, about the seemingly new rule regarding members being required to have personal accounts, in order to participate.

Although we hadn't been enforcing it previously, this had always been a requirement for the program. That being said, after some consultation, we have decided to amend the policy, so that most organizational accounts can now participate. Libraries, booksellers, small historical and artistic associations, and all manner of other organizations can now officially participate in ER. The only type of organization that is still not permitted to participate is the publisher one, for obvious reasons.

Thank you for letting us know, but... why is LibraryThing doing this? Libraries, booksellers, and other organizations tend to have better access to pre-releases than individual reviewers do, don't they?
