Sora, by OverDrive is another great way to access a wide variety of high quality online material. In addition to allowing access to our NSD digital collection, Sora allows students to browse, search and borrow age-appropriate ebooks and audiobooks from the local public library. It also creates a fun and interactive environment for readers to explore new subjects and titles to encourage them to develop a love for reading.
Students logging into Sora through Clever do not need a password. If accessing outside of Clever, they can log in just as they would for the NSD Digital Library (see instructions above)
Epic is an online reading app that offers access to thousands of high interest eBooks, audiobooks and videos for elementary students. This is a subscription based app but your student may have access by using a class code. Be sure to check with your child's teacher for this information.
