(CAMERA) Andrea Levin - Libraries make important choices, such as which books to purchase, and librarians rely in part for title selections on the recommendations of such well-known book reviewers as Library Journal, which describes itself as the "oldest independent national library publication" read by "over 100,000 library directors." A look at Middle East-related commentary produced by Library Journal, however, suggests a striking pattern of laudatory, uncritical endorsement of patently one-sided books written by extreme critics of Israel. Unabashedly pro-Palestinian volumes and apologetics for anti-Israel terrorism are cast as non-partisan, balanced, informative, and "essential" reading. For librarians interested in balanced and objective reviews of books on the Arab-Israeli conflict, it is "highly recommended" that they look elsewhere. 2004-07-23 00:00:00Full Article
