Abstract
This article suggests that among the impediments to the institutionalization of nonprofit and voluntary action research is the inability of publishers of scholarly books to effectively market them. The chief obstacle to this effort is the failure of general readership periodicals and scholarly journals to comprehensively review the growing literatures on these subjects. In the hope of taking on this task, Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly solicits the assistance of its readers.Keywords
