Founded by Rhode Island poet laureate emeritus Tom Chandler and based in the Department of History, Literature, and the Arts at Bryant University, Bryant Literary Review has published poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction since its first issue in 2000. The journal operates at the intersection of a campus community and a global readership, and its archive—publicly accessible through the university's digital commons—reflects a deliberate balance of established authors and emerging voices. For poets, this is a venue with an institutional memory and a demonstrated commitment to literary craft rather than trend. The journal accepts up to three poems per author per reading period, with a strict limit of one submission per author across genres. There is a $5.00 submission fee. Copyright reverts to the author upon publication, and previously published work is not considered. The reading period closes on December 1, 2026. Work is read by the editorial staff of the Review, and the journal's longevity—over two decades of continuous publication—suggests a curatorial sensibility that values formal control, clarity of voice, and poems that reward rereading. Because Bryant Literary Review is housed within a university department, it occupies a particular position: neither a commercial magazine nor a student-run campus journal, but a serious literary review with an international submission pool. Poets should understand that the review's mission is to cultivate an active connection between the Bryant campus community and the broader literary world. Accepted work enters both a print and digital archive, and the journal's back issues provide a reliable index of the aesthetic range the editors have historically favored.
