[aisle] Sora app for ebooks

[Pam Meiser]

Which permission are you asking about, Denise?

I don't know much about the "back end" of things, and all the arrangement
of portals, etc, was handled by administration and our high school
librarians. The great thing is when you make changes, such as weeding,
creating collections, or purchasing titles, they're often in place within
30 minutes. Overdrive says it could be up to 24 hours, but I've never had
it take that long. Now, if you have to get POs and people to sign off on
things, that's wait time on the front end.
