Digital Library Resources
Search book lists by genre, theme, or author. Use the advanced search feature to look for specific Lexile or Accelerated Reader levels.
The same functionality as NoveList, but geared to Grades K-8 only.
Lexile Framework for Reading is an educational tool to match readers with leveled reading resources. Students are assigned a score range, and can then use this tool to discover books in that range.
Accelerated Reader (AR) is an educational leveling tool for managing student's independent reading. Search for a book's level and points in English or Spanish!
