Do you know someone that deserves extraordinary recognition for their contribution to book or media reviewing?
Of course you do!
The Louis Shores-Greenwood Publishing Group Award Committee is seeking to identify individuals or groups (librarians, editors, reviewers, review sources, or organizations) who have accomplished significant achievement in the book reviewing process.
All kinds of reviewing are considered, from a library review blog, to a significant body of work as a reviewer, to those employed as book review editors and publishers. Online and in-print work is considered equally.
This is a great opportunity to recognize the colleagues who help review and suggest great books and core titles.
The Louis Shores-Greenwood Publishing Group Award Committee is currently inviting nominations for the 2008 recipient. The award will be presented at the American Library Association Annual Conference in 2008 and includes a citation and a $3,000 cash award.
