Book Reviews
Reviews are important tools for describing and evaluating books, both fiction and non-fiction. Reviews for popular books usually appear within a few days or months of publication. Reviews for scholarly books usually take longer and normally appear within a year or two of publication. Online databases have made finding reviews faster, but we have many print resources that will assist you to find book reviews.
