It makes more sense to ask what you and others can do to help get it there.

Calibre is a great product that exists because of volunteers and donations.

But they can access literature in many forms (including old fashioned books), various formats and so on. Of course students should have access to literature at all times. While I don't have any issues with Calibre in the classroom, the poll makes no sense. OverDrive has 8 book formats -> compatible - not compatible Hey, partial support is better than no support. The problem there is that MP3 audiobooks only make up 68~75% of a library's audiobook collection, while WMA covers over 99% of it. MP3 audiobooks are now covered, which is partially good news. It's similar to the Android app, but without Kindle support though the Chrome browser supports Kindle. Please make it possible to use Calibre on the chromebook, so that my students can use their growing ebook collections in class and build on each other's love of literature. I have even showed them how to use digital libraries online to 'check out' ebooks. I have showed them how to find DRM free ebooks, they love Project Gutenberg, and many of them have their own ebooks purchased on their own devices that are not allowed for use in class. My class and other classes like mine need Calibre on the Chromebooks. Our school had chromebooks donated to the students, but they are limited in their use as ebook libraries and ereaders. I want to incorporate an ebook library system in my classroom. I also believe that it is essential and critical to the instruction of emergent readers in teaching a love of literature. There is nothing else like it and I rave about it to all my friends and colleagues.Īs a teacher, I believe that with the ability to build, manage and show off one's own personal library is one of the best parts about being an avid reader. I have been utilizing it for years and have an extensive digital library that I simply cannot live without.
