January 28, 2009 For those who haven’t heard yet, Reed Business is suspending the publication of Críticas.
These are tough times all around, I know. But I believe that if enough of us write and respond to this decision, there will be reconsideration. Or if not, at least assurance that Spanish-language books and media will still receive a sufficient amount of coverage in Library Journal, School Library Journal and Publishers Weekly. Write your comments on why Críticas is important to you to Francine Fialkoff at fialkoff@reedbusiness.com and Ron Shank at rshank@reedbusiness.com.
In response to the Críticas closing and Publishers Weekly layoffs, the group's publisher Ron Shank said in a Publishers Marketplace interview:
"The most response I have received personally is from librarians and others around the country who lament the suspension of Críticas." He added "We do have plans to continue to review coverage and feature coverage of Spanish language publishing.”
Let's make sure they do.
