Students and staff can now borrow ebooks and audiobooks through the school library using the Sora app.  Through Sora, we have access to the MA Library System’s Commonwealth Ebook Collection, which contains over 40,000 titles.  This collection is only shared between participating K-12 schools in MA, so wait times for items are generally shorter than they can be at public libraries.  Sora offers a wide range of accessibility features, including dyslexic font, customizable text, and more. The Sora app has been loaded into self-service on all school iPads, but it can also be added to any device or accessed through a web browser.  Students can use their school Google account to access this service. Click here for a video tutorial.
