There are many great journals for public librarians. The two we receive and share with the librarians in our branches are : BookList , and Library Journal. Both of these are excellent . I also find that the articles are great- especially the ones in Library Journal.
I use these for mostly reading reviews of the latest books and look for their stared reviews and special sections on various genres. Both also have great websites.
. Booklist is a book-review magazine that has been published by the American Library Association for more than 100 years. It is widely viewed as offering the most reliable reviews to help libraries decide what to buy . It also has an extensive website and database, e-newsletters, webinars, and other resources that support librarians in collection development and readers' advisory.
Library Journal is another trusted and respected publication for the library community. Built on more than a century of quality journalism and reviews, Library Journal provides features and analytical news reports covering technology, management, policy and other professional concerns to public, academic and institutional libraries. They have vast reviews and evaluate 8000+ books, ebooks, audiobooks, videos/DVDs, databases, systems and websites.
