What is Sora?

SORA is our ebook/audiobook/read-along collection of OC/OU (One copy/One User) books. Think of it as you do a library. You check out a book to read and no one else can read that book until you return it.  Every ARPS user has an account linked to their ARPS EMAIL.  Users can create lists, check out 3 titles at a time and place up to 4 holds at one time.  You can link your SORA account to the Public Library for more titles.

All WW students/staff/families can request a personal account as well. Email me: wellss@arps.org

Teachers can request that a title be assigned to a specific student for a period of time if we own it.  Unfortunately, you can't do this yourself but I can do it for you.

Some "class sets" are available for purchase through SORA, as well. Typically they are available for purchase for multiple students for a 2 - 3 month period.

Educators create their own (free) accounts for on-demand access to over 40,000 high-quality illustrated books and chapter books for children ages 12 and under. 

Epic also includes thousands of Read-to-Me books, Audiobooks, videos educational quizzes.

Teachers create accounts and can assign books to multiple students for on-demand simultaneous use reading.
