eBook Library is Here for EMPS! By Lisa Soukup, E-M Media Specialist
Exeter-Milligan
Public Schools has joined a consortium to purchase eBooks for our students. In
December, some staff and a few students were able to pilot the project.
January, all other students were able to acquire a username and password to
access the eBooks. Several 7-12 students are able to use their iPods, iPads or
phones to access and read the books.
The
elementary are using their iPads
to read the eBooks in school. Each student 2-6 has their own username and
password and during library or free time they read their books. Kindergarten
and First Graders are reading eBooks on their iPads but the teachers are
checking the books out for them. The eBooks give our students the opportunity
to utilize their iPads in a new way. Make sure you ask your child about
the eBooks and the Magic Wall.
Summer
reading is important and encouraged for all students K-12. To help keep your
child reading, have them check out the Magic Wall and see what books are
available. If you want your student’s user-name and password to keep them
reading during the summer just follow the steps below.
