Welcome back, faculty!


Tredway Library has an EXCITING new resource: Choice Reviews Online. This is the online equivalent of the Choice card book reviews. With Choice Reviews Online, you have immediate access to the latest reviews of books published in your field!

There’s really only ONE thing you need to do right now:  set up a “profile” (account) with Choice. By doing so, you specify exactly what kinds of books interest you – and then Choice sends you an email each month containing book reviews that match your profile!  (Please note that our subscription to Choice Reviews Online allows only 4 simultaneous users. If you are denied access, simply try again later.)

  • To create your profile, go to www.cro2.org    (Note: This link is also available on the “Resources for Faculty” page of the library website)

  • On the right side of the screen, click “REGISTER here to create your profile.” Enter basic information about yourself, choose a username and password, and then choose the specific book categories that match your interests.

  • Click “Update My Profile” at the bottom of the screen.

That’s it! For more information about using Choice Reviews Online, please refer to the attached handout, or contact your liaison librarian.
