Hello all, 

BCcampus is looking to implement a review process for books that we are interested in adding to the collection. Up until now, we have taken that on ourselves. But we often find ourselves looking for the opinion of subject-matter experts before we agree to add a book to the collection. 

We are soliciting reviews on the following open textbooks on topics in philosophy and project management for engineers:

These reviews are meant to help guide our decision process. In a review, we will ask you the following:

There will also be an opportunity to provide additional comments. These reviews will not be posted publically, and we expect that they should not take longer than 30 minutes. An honorarium of $100 will be provided for each completed review. We will accept applications from instructors with subject-matter expertise who teach at any Canadian post-secondary institution.

Instructors who are interested in reviewing one of these textbooks can email booksreviews@bccampus.ca from their institutional email address. Provide the book you are interested in reviewing, the institution you teach at, and list the courses that you teach that align with the selected textbook. We are only looking for one review per textbook, so reviewers will be accepted on a first-come basis provided they meet the requirements. 

If none of these textbooks are in your subject area but you'd be willing to review future textbooks, please email bookreviews@bccampus.ca with the subject areas that you have expertise in and I'll make a note to contact you if we have future books in need of review in that subject area. 

Feel free to contact me with any questions. 

Best, 

Josie
