I am very interested in trying to get my local newspaper to start adding new book reviews into their paper. Is there a proper, or better procedure to go about trying to accomplish this?

    Most papers do not do their own reviews. They purchase them from other papers or review services. This is expensive, few subscribers actually read those reviews, and many papers believe the space can be better used with advertising. Sad, I know.
