Booklist

Booklist is a publication established in 1905 and operated by the American Library Association (ALA). It serves as a valuable resource for librarians, educators, and readers by providing authoritative reviews and recommendations across various literary genres and age groups. The company publishes two print magazines that feature over 8,000 annual reviews of books, audiobooks, and reference materials. It also offers digital editions of these magazines and hosts an online platform with a searchable archive of over 25 years of reviews and readers' advisory content. Additional resources include professional development webinars for librarians and themed e-newsletters. The Booklist Manager is a web-based tool that helps educators and distributors manage course booklists and request distribution rights. Booklist primarily targets school and public librarians involved in collection development and readers' advisory, while also catering to library patrons, educators, and book enthusiasts seeking curated recommendations.
