First Draft Matchmaker Program: Call for Authors and Reviewers!

  • 1.  First Draft Matchmaker Program: Call for Authors and Reviewers!

    Posted Apr 25, 2023 09:05 AM

    Dear colleagues,

    All of us in the Library Writing Cooperative hope your spring is off to a good start! 

    We would like to remind you that if you have a first draft you'd like reviewed, we have volunteer reviewers ready to help! If you don't have anything ready now, but you think you might in the future, you can sign up and send it in later.

    How do you get connected? Fill out our Wanting Review form, and tell us if you'd like a review now or later.

    If you are interested in being a reviewer, please head to our Volunteer Reviewer form.

    Finally, if you'd like to join our new mailing list where we'll be sharing very occasional updates and news, we'd love to have you. 

    Participation in the First Draft Matchmaker program is free and open to all library workers, and requires no membership fees. If you have friends or colleagues in the library world who might be interested in our program, please pass this message along.

    Thanks so much!

    All the best,

    Amanda Izenstark

    Co-founder of the Library Writing Cooperative
