Choice Announces 5 Free e-Newsletters for Choice Reviews Online

From the Announcement and Subscription Information:

Choice Reviews Online, the online version of Choice magazine, a publishing unit of the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL), announces 5 new free, content-driven e-newsletters, which will be of value to anyone interested in keeping up with new print and online scholarly publications. Every month the e-newsletters will deliver Choice Reviews Online Web-only content of important new publications; the popular Forthcoming Titles feature; and a selection of Internet resources reviews, available only as a newsletter.

Three newsletters feature Web exclusive content – Editors’ Picks, Hot Topics, and ShelfLife. These timely compilations are updated each month with notable reviews in their subject areas. They include links to Choice Reviews Online, where subscribers can read the reviews online. The ISBNs in each record are hyperlinked to WorldCat, which allows readers to easily identify libraries in their area that have the featured titles.

The Forthcoming Titles e-newsletter provides extensive coverage of soon-to-be published titles, each focusing on a particular subject (e.g., Reference, Political Science, Women’s Sudies, Science & Technology). These popular features, which appear in Choice, are now freely available to a wider audience via the newsletter. Links throughout the newsletter allow readers to browse specific subject areas.

The Internet Resources newsletter features reviews of Web sites from the current issue of Choice. “Keeping up with new, high-quality Web sites is a constant challenge,” said Managing Editor Fran Graf. “The Internet Resources Newsletter makes this task easier by highlighting Web sites of value to the academic community.”
