Thank you very much for your interest in South Dakota Review. The magazine, which began publishing in 1963, was in recent years guided by the deft and capable hands of Lee Horikoshi Roripaugh. The magazine is hosted by the University of South Dakota, which is located in Vermillion (Waséoyuze), in the southeastern corner of the state, in the Missouri River watershed, on land cared for by Lakota, Dakota, Umonhon, Ponca, Otoe, and Ioway people.

From spring through autumn 2026, the magazine will take a gentle hiatus. Subscribers will be contacted with information about what they can expect going forward. Current subscriptions will run through volume 60 number 4. Any subscriptions that extend past 60.4, please watch for correspondence about your subscription. 

We are excited to bring you new issues of South Dakota Review that continue the magazine's commitment to cultural and aesthetic diversity, while imagining into the future what a literary magazine can look like, do, and be.
