Note to Publishers and Authors
I am always on the lookout for great new books, and I love sharing them with my blog friends. I would be thrilled to receive books from you to review, if they are a good fit for A Traveler’s Library. But please familiarize yourself with the type of books covered here. Any genre may fit, but only if it brings a strong sense of place and/or culture of a place.
Novels, memoirs, biographies, children’s books, even cookbooks have been discussed at A Traveler’s Library. But all the books chosen entice a person to travel to a specific place. I can accept books that are readable on the Sony Reader or Kindle, and also review audio books.
I am also interested in conducting author interviews. If you would like to have a book featured on my blog, contact me at vmb@atravelerslibrary.com

AD POLICIES
I currently use limited affiliate advertising and prefer display advertising. I like 120 x 120 or 120(width) by 240 (ht.) ads that are pre-formatted for use in Word Press. I am not accepting paid content offers. I do product reviews from time to time.
I also accept products for giveaways and feature products that are appropriate for special occasion gifts. I clearly label advertisements and disclose freebies.
