In order for the State Textbook Commission to make an informed decision on items submitted under this method, it should be understood that ample time needs to be given for this process. The State Textbook Commission relies on a review of the actual item before it makes a decision to place it on the State Multiple List. This review is based upon the criteria of the adoption group evaluation tool.
