It should read ``Brooks's'' in the title.

It doesn't have to. There are different conventions, both of which are acceptable

 

 

In general, a good practice is to follow whichever spoken form is judged best: Boss’s shoes, Mrs. Jones’ hat (or Mrs. Jones’s hat, if that spoken form is preferred). In many cases, both spoken and written forms will differ between people.

Nothing to do with the discussion - but pedantic grammer police annoy me. Particularly if they are wrong.

 

As you were...
