Approaching Libraries and Independent bookstores is Now That Much Easier!

For years we have been asked by small publishers if we had a way to contact librarians and bookstores without breaking the bank. The answer is now YES.

Jenkins Group, America's leading publishing services firm, invites you to participate in Review Direct, a simple marketing campaign that delivers your title information to two of the industry's most sought after sales channels.

With more than twenty years in business, we understand the frustrations authors and publishers face when working to expose their titles to both libraries and independent bookstores. Review Direct helps solve these challenges with two unique programs that can work either independently or together for increased visibility.

Independent Bookstore
Review Direct


Our Independent Bookstore Review Direct program offers you the opportunity to share your book with this hard to reach market. Through an informational PDF document created by our staff (click here to see a sample), your pertinent book and contact information is sent via email as part of our Review Direct Emerging Titles monthly newsletter to approximately 3,200 independent bookstores around the country.

Library Review Direct


Our Library Review Direct program delivers your book information to public and university librarians around the country. Again, through our informational PDF document created by our staff (click to here see a sample), your pertinent book and contact information is sent via email as part of our Review Direct Emerging Titles monthly newsletter to approximately 35,000 librarians around the country.

The Complete Review Direct Program


Receive the benefits of both programs by combining them at one low, discounted price. The complete program offers the delivery of your book information to our independent bookstores list and the complete librarian database for more complete coverage.
