[lug] Book reviews requested

[J. Wayde Allen]

The books supplied to the BLUG by O'Reilly are review copies.  So, if
you've read one, they would very much appreciate hearing from you.  The
following was recently posted in O'Reilly's new e-mail bulletin.  

   REVIEW COPY GUIDELINES
   ----------------------
   We find reviews to be invaluable. Your feedback helps us to continue
   providing the quality books you've come to expect from O'Reilly.

   I supply review copies with the hope that a review will be written for
   O'Reilly, and also passed on to your members through newsletters, group
   web sites or email mailing lists. We haven't enforced this heavily,
   however we would like to remind groups requesting copies for review
   that it's appropriate to write a review in exchange for the books
   provided.

   If you would rather post a press release that O'Reilly has written, in
   lieu of writing a review, let me know. I'm happy to provide you with
   the link to the press release or email the entire release to you.

   If you're new to writing product reviews, I found this article from
   APCUG (Association of Personal Computer Users) to be insightful,
   hopefully it can help give you some pointers:
