Greetings to all,

The ARLIS/NA Reviews has a new co-editor - please join me in welcoming Megan Macken!  Also, I would like to give sincere thanks to my outgoing co-editor, Rebecca Price, for her hard work and dedication to the Reviews.

The co-editors for ARLIS/NA Reviews are seeking reviewers for the September 2021 edition. Because our access to print copies continues to be somewhat limited, this list includes some print books and some PDFs. The version of the book that the reviewer will receive is noted in the entries below. (In the cases of the PDFs, we will work with the publisher to get a print copy to you.)

Please contact the co-editors by 5 pm (Eastern Time) Friday, June 25 if you are interested in reviewing any of the titles below. In your response, please note how your subject background and expertise, or interests match the subject matter of the book.

You must be able to meet a Monday, August 16 deadline with a 450 word review.
