Midwest Book Review
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Established in 1976 by James A. Cox, Midwest Book Review publishes several monthly publications for community and academic library systems in California, Wisconsin, and the upper Midwest. It is an organization of volunteers committed to promoting literacy, library usage, and giving priority consideration to small press publishers, self-published authors, and academic presses. They accept no financial donations from authors or publishers for their services.
The organization also produces audio book review commentaries.
The Gale Research Company of Farmington Hills, Michigan, has contracted with the Midwest Book Review to provide electronic copies of the book reviews they publish in their library newsletters, on the Internet. In addition, the same company uses these reviews in their Book Review Index interactive CD-ROM series, designed for use by community, university, and corporate libraries nationwide in the U.S. and Canada.
