JacketFlap on the Rise
By Sally Lodge, Children's Bookshelf -- Publishers Weekly, 2/14/2008

A writer in search of a publisher, an illustrator looking to showcase artwork, or a librarian interested in browsing authors' blogs have good reason to log onto an increasingly popular Web site. Less than two years after its launch, JacketFlap.com, a social networking Web site for those involved in the world of children's books, receives some 200,000 visits each month. More than 1,600 published authors and illustrators have created member profiles on the site, which also includes profiles established by publishers, booksellers, librarians and agents. In addition to offering online chatting opportunities -- the site offers a "Blog Reader" that aggregates posts from more than 650 children's book-related blogs -- JacketFlap also features a searchable database of almost 900,000 children's books, 200,000 published individuals and 20,000 publishers.
