We add new books to Granite's Sora nearly every week of the school year! You can find the latest additions in the New Children's Books and New Teen Books collections in Sora. Scroll on for graphics and more details about books recently added to Granite's Sora.
Sora (direct link: https://soraapp.com/welcome/login/766) or accessed from Granite Bookmarks on a Chromebook is a reading and listening app through which students can access thousands of ebooks and audiobooks in Granite School District’s collection. Students can read or listen to these books using a Chromebook, desktop computer, or personal mobile device.
Here is a graphic presentation featuring many of the new children's book titles added to Granite's Sora in the past few weeks. You can view it as a slideshow, download a printable PDF copy, or use it as a template and remix it in Canva.

Every week we also buy additional copies of books we already own that have many holds placed on them, so that students can get their turn sooner. If you want to read a book, please place a hold on it! This tells us to buy more copies, and the book will almost always come to you sooner than the wait time listed in Sora.
Some titles in Sora expire after a certain period of time or a certain number of checkouts. If students place holds on those books, we renew them so that they can be checked out some more. You can find these books in our Recently Renewed! collection. Don't let them go to waste while we have them!
Besides browsing the collections in Sora, you can follow our new additions with this spreadsheet. We will also publish updates like this one every week or two right here on granitemedia.org.
