Call for Reviewers - Choice/ACRL core subject list

  • 1.  Call for Reviewers - Choice/ACRL core subject list

    Posted 24 days ago

    Greetings HSIG members:

     

    Resources for College Libraries (RCL), the Choice/ACRL bibliography of essential titles for undergraduate collections, seeks experienced library subject selectors and faculty to serve as peer reviewers. We are currently seeking referees for the RCL Social Science and Science and Technology subjects, including: Health Sciences and Medicine.  

     

    Peer reviewers provide feedback and evaluate how well the core title list supports the college curriculum, including collection assessment considerations centered on diverse publications, emerging scholarship, and historically underrepresented voices or perspectives. The RCL peer review is a one-time professional service opportunity that can strengthen collection assessment skills, inform local projects, and build subject expertise. See the full subject list and FAQs at: www.choice360.org/blog-post/rcl-call-for-reviewers-2025/

     

    How 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.org). Preference will be given to those who apply by May 15, 2025.
