Burns has worked closely with a U.K.-based group, Prelims (Publishers Resolutions for Ethical International Manufacturing Standards), which works to establish ethical production standards and elimination of child labor throughout the international book trade. “We work together to have suppliers work [toward] an industry standard for corporate social responsibility,” she says. Signatories to a resolution affirming social accountability standards include Chronicle, Scholastic, Random House and Penguin UK, among others. Burns says one of her goals is to raise awareness of this organization among U.S. publishers.
