This group is intended as a forum where Book Review Editors at journals across the humanities can discuss shared issues. Its formation has been prompted by the growing problem of academic publishers being unwilling to provide hard copies of books for review. You can find and comment upon a draft shared policy statement, to which we hope many journals will sign up, here:

We also hope this group can provide a venue for more wide-ranging discussion around the role and future of reviews and reviewing, as well as a place for sharing practical problems and tips and advice.
