Ebooks NOW – Enabling Our Students to Read from Home
Published 05/05/20During this challenging time when libraries and bookshops are closed we want our students to be able to continue reading from home both for pleasure and in relation to their studies, the school has therefore subscribed to Ebooks NOW.
There are over 1,500 quality ebooks on offer from popular authors. The collection has award winning fiction, non-fiction, audio books, GCSE and A Level set texts, study guides and text books. There is a huge variety of text types, including graphic novels and genres and topics to hopefully engage even the most reluctant reader. This exciting reading service is available through Sora, the student reading app, which provides free access to ebooks and audiobooks. What better way to engage our student’s mind than through reading?
For more information on how Sora works and to download the app, please find below the link to the user guide: https://help.soraapp.com/en-us/5033.htm - Read More
