One of the great resources that we have to support literacy in Cobb Digital Library is Sora. Sora is an online library of free eBooks and audiobooks. Students have the option of borrowing books and placing books on hold- if the book that they want to read is checked out. Please view the video below for more information about Sora.

This activity was posted on Facebook by The Book Bug (@thebookbug). If you love Minecraft- and I know that many of our students do- you will want to participate in the 2020 Minecraft Global Challenge! For this challenge, you will need to think about your community and the buildings and resources that are available. What could you add to your community to make it a perfect place for everyone that lives there?
