The Textbook Commission may appoint an advisory panel of expert teachers in each subject area or grade level to advise the commission on book selection.

The application process is open to any teacher who meets the statutory requirements (now teaching or supervising the respective subject, proper endorsement, and three or more years of public school experience) for serving on the local adoption committee. 

Reviewers will be selected by a committee composed of the subject area consultant, one or more commission members, and the director of textbook services.  The list will then be submitted to the Textbook Commission for final approval.

The application process follows the Adoptions Cycles as listed below. The cycles are in reverse order.The area highlighted indicates the open cycle. Click in it to get the current application.
