Did you know you can search for books by Lexile level in Sora? You can also ask Sora to show you only books that are available immediately without any holds. Looking for an audiobook for a holiday trip? Sora can show you audiobooks only!
In the Explore tab, use the “Filters” option on the right side of the screen, then choose the filter or filters you would like to set. Then click “Show Results,” and the app will show you the books in our collection that match your search!
When setting filters, just remember you will need to remove those filters in the future if you want to go back to viewing the entire collection. You can do this with the “Clear All” option in the top right corner of the Filters tab.
In the Explore tab, you can use the Filters menu on the right side of the screen to narrow your search for books on Sora!
You can select your Lexile range under "Lexile score," use the "Format" option to specify ebook or audiobook, or even check "Available Titles Only" at the top of the Filters menu. Then click "Show Results" at the bottom.
The filters you set will remain in place until you clear them. So if you want to see the whole collection again, just use the "Clear All" button on the top right of the Filters menu. Or you can clear filters individually if you want to keep some but not all of them.
