Yes, it is worth maintaining a subscription to both.
Library Media Connection has great features on technology and the
practical application in your library setting. LMC also has great
reviews of books, AV hardware and software and web sites that include a
rating system. Their ratings include Highly Recommended, Recommended,
and Optional Purchase. They let you know right away if the item would
be considered an optional purchase.
School Library Journal has great reviews and in the past focused
mainly on books. They have added features recently for reviewing AV
hardware and software along with web sites. They do not include an
actual rating system.
My selection policy requires two reviews from reputable sources.
These qualify.

Good morning,
Which magazine do you prefer and why - Library Media Connection or
School
Library Journal? Is it worth maintaining a subscription to both?
Thanks for your input,
