Sora

Your school + The public library = More reading.

Sora is an app, like Libby, designed for students in K-12 schools for accessing the OverDrive content that their school owns.

Why should public libraries care? 
The Sora app can also be linked to public libraries that serve the students of that district or school.

  • Students engage with your collection using an app they already know
  • Opportunity to collaborate with and support local schools
  • Attract new patrons and increase circulation of juvenile and teen content
