Registered Authors___________________________________
The annual PLR results were mailed out to registered authors on 15 February 2012. If you are already registered with the PLR Program, you should receive your PLR package by the end of February. It contains the following:
- a Title Earning Summary listing your registered titles;
- a PLR cheque if your book was eligible and found in
one or more of the public library catalogues selected;
- a personalized File Update form, which we ask you to use to submit new titles or to notify us of any change of address;
- a T4A tax slip if you received a payment of $500 or more in 2011.
An author may appeal a decision on eligibility by writing to the PLRC before May 1st, 2012. To do so, one must submit an example of the work and a letter explaining how it meets the program's eligibility criteria. The work will be returned after the appeal is reviewed.
You do not need to re-register your titles.
