Wow. I put a story about Kirkus on my coll-dev syllabus, just to justify why I'm not going to be spending loads of time talking about review sources (because hello, they change on a dime!). This is rather proving my point.
They still haven't told us anything, but they've said things in real enough terms that I believe that it is actually happening.
It's weird to think of Kirkus as something that potentially changes on a dime. It's been almost 100 years of one of the most reliable review sources out there. But now with Kirkus zipping in and out, and PW, LJ, and SLJ at risk (HELLO HORIZONTAL MONOPOLY I SEE YOU THERE), we have to think of everything as changing on a dime.

Do you know when it'll be announced publicly?
