My apologies if I offended anyone. I subscribe to Booklist and School
Library journal and enjoy them. Those publications were not what I had in
mind. I was merely adding my appreciation of the reviews I see on the list.

I would like to point out that Booklist, School Library
Journal, Kirkus, and VOYA are specific reviews from your
colleagues: librarians, media specialists, and others who
do the work you do and write reviews for publication. A
blurb in a magazine or catalog is not a review.
I don't think that anyone who buys books for a library can
do without having at least one of those sources to hand.
