I serve as the Editor-in-Chief, Diane Donovan is the West Coast Editor, and as of this writing there are 70+ volunteer reviewers.
We publish book review magazines online each month, including: The Internet Bookwatch, The Children's Bookwatch, The California Bookwatch, The Small Press Bookwatch, The Reviewer's Bookwatch, and The MBR Bookwatch. These publications are posted on our Midwest Book Review website at www.midwestbookreview.com and other places on the internet. They are also sent to a 300+ email subscriber list. Subscription to these electronic publications is free.
Additionally, I provide an 'on-air' book review commentary for KNLS short wave radio in Anchor Point, Alaska. This monthly 'KNLS Bookwatch' is broadcast to Europe, North and South America, and the Pacific Rim.
I serve as the Acquisitions Consultant for Dane County Library Services (responsible for 52 southern Wisconsin community library systems).
The Midwest Book Review is contracted to provide all of our reviews to Gale Research Company, (Farmington Hills, MI) each month on a computer disk for their interactive CD-ROM series (Book Review Index) which is published four times a year for corporate, academic, and public library systems.
This is in addition to the Gale Research Company also making our reviews available to library systems nationwide in their print, magnetic tape, and diskette series.
We also post all our reviews on thematically appropriate internet discussion groups such as alt.books.reviews and rec.arts.comics.reviews.
Our reviews are made available to internet bookstores such as Amazon.com.
We also maintain a Midwest Book Review web site on the World Wide Web where all of our reviews are posted for five months and which also features 'hot-links' to publishers who have their own web sites, as well as other internet resources of interest to the general reading public.
The Midwest Book Review e-mail address is mbr@execpc.com
If I can be of service to you as a reader, writer or publisher, please don't hesitate to ask.
Sincerely,
