Edison, please review criterion 2 at . It specifically says that a review in a publication like ''Choice'' that reviews thousands of books a year with little regard for notability does not indicate that the book is notable. (If you look at the table of contents for the July/Aug issue of Choice you'll see that there are 622 items, looks like mostly all book reviews - I am assuming that Scitech book news is similar). ''Every'' book will be reviewed somewhere, just like every book will have a page on amazon.com - neither signifies notability. I have a self-published history of a New England liberal arts college that cites two reviews on the cover. The point is not that any book that's been reviewed is notable, its that any book that is reviewed by publications that don't review just about ''everything'' is notable. If a significant reviewer (NYTimes, NY Review of Books, London Review of Books, etc.) thought that the book was notable enough to warrant a real review (not a paragraph) than that's evidence of notability. A couple of brief reviews are really meaningless
