SORA/Overdrive Summer Reading Program

Dear Parents and Educators,

With the coronavirus outbreak and Summer, Sweetwater High School wants to help students find new ways to learn while away from the classroom.

We have an exciting reading service available through Sora, the student reading app, which provides free 24/7 access to eBooks and audiobooks. What better way to engage your student’s mind than through reading?

Starting April 15 – July 31, 2020, the Sora Sweet Reads program will offer a collection of Juvenile and Young Adult titles that will be prominently displayed in Sora for quick and easy unlimited access. You can explore the title offerings and learn more about the program here: https://resources.overdrive.com/sora-sweet-reads/. Please note that there are 30 unlimited titles available through the end of July, but we have additional titles on this platform that are available 365 days a year. So, students can read ALL year long! Note: You can read in your web browser or download and read later when you don’t have Internet access.

How does it work?
Sora provides the quickest and easiest way to get started with digital titles from our school. Students can simply log in using student identification number and 8- digit birthdate and instantly access hundreds of eBooks and audiobooks on virtually any device. Get started today at https://soraapp.com or download the free Sora app for Android or iOS. For easy access, our school’s setup code is https://soraapp.com/library/sweetwaterca .
