Reading
List / Source Selection
Based
on the results of the job analysis as well as a discussion
with your agency personnel, the Justex staff recommends
the most comprehensive, current, and appropriate textbooks
for consideration as exam sources. You may also include
department policy and procedure manuals, rules and regulations,
and city ordinances. A list of suitable Justex-approved
sources is located
on this website. Generally, sources can be used up
to three years, assuming one promotion examination per
year.
Obtaining
Review Copies of Textbooks
Justex
has copies of each book on its reading list and makes
copies available on loan to administrators making source
selection decisions. There is nothing quite like having
the actual book in hand when deciding on sources. This
also saves the department the expense of purchasing a
book which may not ultimately be used on the test.
