Choice Reviews

Choice is a major review source for academic books. Each month, the Acquisitions Department distributes Choice Reviews to the departmental coordinators, who then forward these to their faculty colleagues. Individual departments may have varying policies that govern routing and prioritization of the Choice Reviews. To order a Choice book, add your initial to the title desired and return it to your Coordinator. 

    You may also use Choice Reviews Online. The online version allows you to search along numerous criteria: keyword, LC Classification stem, Recommendation Level, etc. It also allows you to access previous issues of Choice.
