A publisher is required to submit a newer edition of an adopted title to the Textbook Adoptions Office for substitution within sixty days of the newer edition being published. Subject area consultants in the Department of Public Instruction review the new edition and make a recommendation to substitute or not. The criteria for substitution is that the newer edition and the edition presently on contract (the older edition) may be used in the same classroom. The Textbook Warehouse does not stock two editions of the same title. If the newer edition is approved for substitution, then it replaces the older edition on contract. Publishers may not request substitutions prior to October 1 of year two of the adoption.
