How to Get Free Books如何获得免费的书籍

If you’re in it for the long-haul, blogging or writing that is, chances are there’ll come a time when you think, “I’d like to review a particular book for my site”.如果你在它的长程，博客或书面形式，即有机会会来的时候，你觉得“我要审查某一本书对我的网站” 。

As regular readers of my Sciencebase.com site will know, I review probably a dozen or more science books each year, but I know several of you are wondering how do I get those books to review in the first place?作为普通读者，我Sciencebase.com网站将知道，我的审查可能一打或更多的科学书籍，每年，但我知道一些你不知道我要如何让这些书籍审查摆在首位？ Of course not!当然不是！ Publishers have sent review copies (usually advance proof versions) to journalists for decades with the sole aim of soliciting their opinions and gaining a mention among their column inches.出版商发出审查的副本（通常是预先证明版本）记者几十年来，其唯一目的是征求他们的意见并获得一提列之间的英寸。

Publishers contact me on an almost weekly basis offering to send a book for review, I usually accept, but not always, and the standard code is that no one is obliged to write anything, whether good or bad, about any particular publication just because it was provided free of charge.出版商联系我几乎每周提供送一本书的审查，我通常接受，但并非总是如此，标准编号是，没有人有义务写什么，无论是好还是坏，对任何特定的出版只是因为它是免费提供的。 That’s the standard rule of review journalism.这是法治的标准审查新闻。 And, if you don’t believe me, just look at some of the downright nasty reviews books, movies, plays, Broadway shows, restaurants, and even holiday destinations get in the media (none of those would have been paid for by the journalist doing the reviewing).而且，如果你不相信我，只要看看一些彻头彻尾的讨厌的评语书籍，电影，戏剧，百老汇表演，餐馆，甚至让度假目的地在媒体上（无那些本来支付的记者这样的审查） 。

Anyway, a good blogging friend of mine, who shall remain anonymous, mentioned recently that he’d like to get involved in reviewing books on his blog and in various trade journals relevant to social media, e-government, online media and asked me for my suggestions on how to get started.总之，一个好的博客的好朋友，谁应保持匿名，提到最近，他希望能参与审查的书籍在他的博客，并在各种行业杂志有关社会媒体，电子政务，网络媒体，并要求我我的建议对如何开始使用。 “Do I merely contact authors and/or publishing agents with my creds and interests?” he asked. “我仅仅是联系作者和/或出版代理人与我creds和利益呢？ ”他问。

Well, it’s easier if you have a regular commission with one of those trade journals, as you could simply ask your editor whether there’s the opportunity to branch out into book reviewing for them and the book reviews section editor will, if they’re interested in saving themselves time and effort, simply box up a couple of dozen books and ship them across to your desk with a final demand for reviews by the end of the week.嗯，很容易如果您有一个委员会，定期与这些行业杂志，因为你可以简单地问您的编辑是否有机会到分行书籍对他们进行审查和书评节将编辑，如果他们再有兴趣节省自己的时间和精力，只要中了一对夫妇的十本书和船舶他们越过你的案头，最终需求的审查结束的一周。 Of course, you have to read (skim if necessary) all those books and then come up with a pile of words to deadline to fill the requisite column inches.当然，你必须阅读（脱脂如果需要的话）的所有书籍，然后拿出了一堆字的最后期限，以填补必要的栏英寸。

If you’re an independent writer or blogger though, then perhaps the most straightforward way is to simply keep an eye on the forthcoming publications lists (published by book publishers in the trade press) and then approach the publisher when you spot the books in which you have an interest.如果你是一个独立的作家或Blogger不过，当时也许是最直截了当的办法是简单地密切留意即将出版的出版物清单（出版图书出版商在贸易新闻） ，然后办法发布现场当你的书籍，其中你有兴趣。 Tell them you’re a writer for such-and-such, which is a well-known magazine, journal, website, with so many thousand daily readers, and ask them to send a review copy.告诉他们你是一个作家对这种和等，这是一个众所周知的杂志，期刊，网站，有这么多读者每天一千，并要求他们派出一个审查的副本。 Nothing more to it.只不过它。 They shouldn’t baulk at the idea and indeed many forward-thinking and progressive publishers are actively space on niche blogs with good readerships because they know they can get good in-depth reviews of their products that could help shift a few hundred or even thousand more units than they otherwise would.他们不应该在开球的想法，事实上许多前瞻性的思维和渐进的出版商正在积极利基空间博客良好的读者，因为他们知道他们能得到良好的深入审查其产品可以帮助转移几百甚至几千更多的单位比他们否则。

Once you’ve published a handful of reviews, you will most likely start to receive email requests from the publishers themselves asking you would like to review their books.一旦你公布了少数评语，你很可能会开始收到电子邮件要求出版商要求自己要审查他们的书籍。 Feel free to accept or decline on a whim but always be courteous however irrelevant the book and always leave the way open for them to suggest other books.随时接受或拒绝的心血来潮，但总是要有礼貌但不相关的书籍，总是离开的方式为他们打开，建议其他书籍。 Do a good job, link back to the more information page at the publisher’s site and remember that there can be a high turnover in book marketing, so the contacts you make at one publisher may change often, but you will start to recognize names when they pop up at a different publishing house.做好，连结回更多信息网页，出版商的网站，并记住，有可能是一个高营业额在图书营销，所以接触你在一个出版商往往可能会改变，但你会开始认识的名字当他们弹出不同的出版社。

You could add your Amazon associate link to the book.您可以将您的亚马逊协理链接到这本书。 If someone buys through your link, you’d make a small percentage on the sale, although that will probably not amount to more than a few dollars a year unless you’ve got tens of thousands of readers.如果有人通过您的购买链接，你让一小部分出售，尽管这可能会不等于超过几个美元，除非你有数以万计的读者。 Anyway, some visitors may consider that to be unethical (although it’s nothing compared to major media placement advertising).总之，一些游客可能会认为这是不道德的（虽然没什么相比，主要媒体的广告位置） 。

Finally, once you’ve read and reviewed the book, it’s your to keep or sell on Amazon.最后，当您已经阅读并审查了本书，这是你保持或出售的亚马逊河。 Morally, I’d say that’s fine, but you could always give the money to a literacy or other charity rather than spending it on beer.道义上，我想说这很好，但你总是可以把钱给识字或其他慈善机构，而不是花费上啤酒。 Alternatively, if the books you review are popular rather than specialist then donate to the local charity shop for them to sell and cut out the intermediary.另外，如果你的书籍很受欢迎的审查，而不是专门然后捐献给当地慈善机构为他们店销售减少了中间。
