Call for Reviewers – Choice/ACRL Core Title Lists

Resources for College Libraries (RCL), the Choice/ACRL bibliography of essential titles for undergraduate teaching and research, seeks experienced library subject selectors and faculty to serve as peer reviewers. 

We are currently seeking referees for the following subjects: Astronomy, Computer Science, Mathematics, and Physics.

Reviewers are tasked with: assessing the subject collection comprehensively; providing recommendations for editorial improvement; and constructive feedback on how well the core title selections support the college curriculum. The RCL peer review is one-time professional service and a capacity-building exercise that strengthens collection development skills, improves subject expertise, and informs local projects.

To apply, submit a current CV and a brief description of your qualifications, particularly developing or evaluating core collections and/or teaching in the subject area to Anne Doherty, RCL Project Editor (adoherty@ala-choice.org). Preference will be given to those who apply by May 20, 2022. We are committed to pursuing equity and inclusion and seek reviewers with diverse backgrounds and new perspectives to the RCL work.
