''Did you mean [[J. Michael Rosenblum]]'s earlier ''[[Booklist]]''?''

'''''Booklist''''' was a [[fanzine]] published as the official organ of the [[British Fantasy Library]] (BFL) by first [[Ron Holmes]] and later [[John Gunn]]. According to [[Rob Hansen]] in ''[[Then]]'' it 'contained more news and notes than actual booklists'.

The BFL was formed in 1946 after the dissolution of [[British Fantasy Society]]. They offered to distribute other fanzines alongside ''Booklist'' and in September 1947 [[Ken Slater]] took up the offer with the first issue of ''[[Operation Fantast]]''. Holmes dropped out of [[fandom]] in 1948, passing ''Booklist'' to John Gunn. [[Walt Willis]] and [[James White]] also sought to take advantage of the distribution offer for the first issue of ''[[Slant]]''. Receiving no reply to his letters, Willis offered to mail ''Booklist'' himself and receive 200 copies and a mailing list on Christmas Day 1948.

It seems ''Booklist'' did not continue after this.
