Choice Cards

Choice reviews books suitable for college libraries. Cards similar to the one shown right are sent to each department's library coordinator. The coordinator will share these cards with the faculty. Individual departments may have varying policies that govern routing and prioritization of these cards. To order from these cards see the instructions on the order procedures page.

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