CFP: Library Journal Special Issue for Black History Month

CFP: Library Journal Special Issue for Black History Month

NOTE: There might be some opportunities for people to write on issues about African American writers for the November 1 issue of LJ. This is really a call for books from publishers.

Original Notice:

To help libraries prepare for Black History Month as well as support their ongoing purchasing of multicultural books, Library Journal will again feature in its November 1 issue works by and about African American writers.

This issue will include books and audiobooks being published between November 1, 2007 and February 29, 2008. Please supply us with two galleys (or books) and one audiobook if possible in all subject areas, including reference, art, literature, poetry, religion, biography, history, politics, health, science, sociology, economics, and fiction, as well as promotional information and catalog copy. Please do not include reprints or children’s books.

This material is due on August 27, 2007. If you have any questions please call (646) 746-6800 or send e-mail to burns@reedbusiness.com. You may mail information to 360 Park Avenue South, New York, NY 10010.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Sincerely,

Ann Burns
Associate Editor
