TCHS Library Catalog 

E-Books and Audiobooks 

Sora by Overdrive lets you access ebooks from both Lexington Public Library and from Fayette County Public Schools using your school Google account (e-mail and password).

Also available as a phone app. Now included as an app on the Google waffle!

Our MackinVia collection is geared specifically toward high schoolers, containing a curated list of quality young adult titles.  Use your regular school log in to get access.  These titles also show up in our Destiny Discover Library Catalog, but if you are specifically looking for an e-book or audiobook, going directly to the site would be faster.

Also available as phone app.

Teen Book Cloud is a service provided by the Kentucky Virtual Library.   You can log in from home using your school Google account (e-mail and password.)

Book Match - A Personalized Book Recommendation Service!

Looking for a  great book to read, but not really sure what you might like?  Let me help you!  Fill in the interest survey and I will hand pick two books I think you might enjoy based on your responses.   Don't worry - your responses are safe with me, and  I will send your book matches in your school e-mail.  If you're interested,  you can put in a Book Drop Delivery request, search for them on Sora or Mackin, or add them to your Destiny Discover favorites list for reading later.  

I look forward to  helping you find your next favorite book!  ~ J. Eldridge

What is this?  

The KBA award is chosen by the students in Kentucky every year.  Read at least 2 books from the master list, then you can vote for your favorite in March.  All votes are counted from all over the state and the winning author is announced in April.
