At 鶹ӰԺ, the full-time faculty have primary responsibility for maintaining the academic standards of the instructional programs. However, there are circumstances when materials selection might need faculty peer review as outlined in this policy. Recognizing that many publishers do not make textbook price information available during the pre-publication review period, faculty shall research price as much as is practical and then take price into account when making the final selection of materials for their classes. Faculty should carefully consider the possibility that using inferior textbook materials may reduce the academic quality of the course, and should therefore use wisdom, practicality, and good judgment in making textbook selection choices. Adjunct faculty do not always have access to the resources needed to make informed materials selection decisions; therefore, the full-time faculty of each department should review the materials selected for these classes as part of the regular adjunct faculty mentoring and evaluation processes. Faculty have always been encouraged to write textbooks and create supplementary materials for their classes as part of their responsibility to make intellectual contributions in their fields of expertise. When using self-authored materials, a review shall be conducted by the Academic Standards Committee. This review shall in no way reduce a faculty member's rights and responsibilities concerning academic freedom. All published materials shall be available through 鶹ӰԺ's bookstore; however, this should in no way restrict a faculty member from making materials available via alternative methods that are consistent with the intellectual property rights of their producers. These alternatives may include but are not limited to web pages, downloads, streaming media, photocopies, etc. %{| ; hY]7hhGhG5CJ\aJ  & F /1h;0/ =!n"n#n$n% h@h Normal$*$1$A$a$/B*CJKHOJPJQJ^J_HaJmH sH tHDAD Default Paragraph FontViV  Table Normal :V 44 la (k(No List >O> WW8Num1z0CJOJQJ^JaJ>O> WW8Num1z1CJOJQJ^JaJ>O> WW8Num1z2CJOJQJ^JaJJO!J Absatz-StandardschriftartPO1P WW-Absatz-StandardschriftartROAR WW-Absatz-Standardschriftart1>OQ> BulletsCJOJPJQJ^JaJNOrN Heading x$CJOJPJQJ^JaJ6B@r6 Body Text x(/@q( List^JH"@H Caption xx $6CJ]^JaJ.O.
