The Library Catalogue Has an Exciting New Feature
Over the summer the library catalogue was updated with an exciting new feature – the reading level values for the books in our collection. At OJCS we use Accelerated Reader as a way for students, teachers, and parents to track reading improvement and progress. By making our catalogue searchable with AR values, students will be able to challenge themselves when making book selections.
Here is how you use it;
Click on the library catalogue link below:
Search any book in the search bar. The AR score is immediately visible on the bottom.
You can see the reading level in point value for this book next to the AR icon.
If you click on the record you can even see the quiz number attached to that title.
The quiz number is in the line with all of the study program information.
You can also search our catalogue by reading level range.
Click on the SEARCH tab.
Click on STUDY PROGRAMS.
Enter the min and max reading level and click search. You can also add in a SUBJECT or a KEYWORD.
This tool is very quick and efficient to use and something that parents, teachers, and students can all benefit from learning. Happy searching!
