In addition to the album, a seven-song EP composed of covers entitled Blind, Deaf & Bleeding, and a short story entitled "The Atheist" were included in deluxe versions of Book Burner. The Blind, Deaf & Bleeding EP focused on American hardcore songs from the 1980s, such as Black Flag and Circle Jerks. The story, written by Hayes, was described by the author as "only very loosely" based on the album concept, as he "didn't want to tie it in too much, since the story was only going to be included with the deluxe version". Instead, Hayes suggested, "there are a couple peripheral tie- ins" between the book and the album, including the appearance of the phrase "book burner" in both.
The single and digraph forms of, for example, vov can be separated either with a dot or an embedded alef as or (vu – "where").

A further graphic example of this distinction is seen in the official announcement, on 14 November 1997, of a change in editorial policy for the prominent Yiddish periodical, (forverts – "Yiddish Forward"). It was first during that year that they adopted the YIVO orthography.
