Directions
​1.  Install the Sora app from the Apple App Store or Google PlayStore,or go to soraapp.com.  

2.  In Sora, find our school.  We are listed under Lisbon Regional School District.  You may also find our school by typing in Lisbon's zip code.  When you see the list of schools that come up, you may need to scroll down through many NH schools before Lisbon appears.  You will then be prompted to sign in.  You already have an account and password which is your school gmail account and password.  

3. Browse the Explore tab and borrow a book. Your book will open so you can start reading right away.  

4.  When you stop reading and go back into the app/sorapp.com, it will still have your book and where you left off.  You can go to your shelf at any point to see all your books. From there you can tap Open Book or Open Audiobook to read or listen to the book. You can tap Options to renew or return the book, get to your notes and highlights, and more.

The Flume: NH Teen Reader’s Choice Award was created in 2005 in response to a New Hampshire teen’s request to have a book award geared towards high school students. This award is a state-wide venture led by a collaborative effort from school and public librarians. Each year teens nominate titles, published within the last three years, they think deserve to be recognized. Librarians narrow the group of titles to a shorter list. Teens then vote for the winning title from that list.
