New Video on How to Add the Public Library to Your Sora Ebook Account: https://youtu.be/FwrFgQxquZU  

Great news shared today from our representative from Overdrive, the maker of SORA:

I am very happy to inform you that your students are now able to access the Dearborn Public Library through Sora by using their student credentials!  Now both students AND staff/teachers can follow this process to borrow public library titles in Sora.

  1. In Sora, click the 3-bar menu (top-right) and click “Add a public library”.
  1. Enter Dearborn PL (for the Midwest Collaborative for Library Services) to locate the public library.
  1. Find a public library title and click on “Borrow” and then “Sign in”.
  1. Select your own school district (not the library) from the drop down. Please note that this is located about half way down the dropdown list, in the second alphabetical list of libraries.
  1. Enter the same credentials used to sign into Sora.

Please visit our Resource Center for marketing materials to promote this feature in your schools.  Please let me know if you have any additional questions!

Thank you!
