Editor's Notes
- #5 NoveList Plus and NoveList K8 Plus are designed to make your school librarians’ job easier, with key features to address their work processes whether they are helping a student find a book to read or helping a teacher locate authentic literature to teach a reading or writing concept.
- #6 NoveList Plus includes fiction and nonfiction for all ages, and covers all grades and ages. K-8 Plus includes fiction and nonfiction for younger readers, especially those in Kindergarten through 8th grade. We will be using both of these interfaces during this presentation.
