[aisle] Ebooks

[Mariela Siegert]

My middle schoolers LOVE Sora.
We used to get our audio books and eBooks from Follett which put it into
Destiny, but it was clunky, the kids didn't like how hard it was to search
for things, and I hated the back end as a manager.

All of these things were made easier with Sora. The price of the books were
pretty much identical because the publishers create the prices.
Sora has a separate login for my students but everybody was able to use it
very easily including my staff.
