[aisle] Learning Ally / audiobooks

[Timmons, Heather]

Can anyone gain access to Reading Ally?  When I asked at my district I was
told it was only for students with IEP's or special accommodations, not for
all students.  Does anyone know the cost, is it subsidized, etc?  When
given that answer I did not look into it further and perhaps I should
have.  You can message me off the listserv at timmons.heather at ccsd59.org.
The website seems out of date as it says The Illinois State Board of
Education (ISBE) funding/contract to provide the Learning Ally solution to
a limited number of public K-12 schools is FULL for school year 2018-19.
