SORA: Building A Culture Of Reading, One Digital Page At A Time

The future of education is already here — and it’s mobile, accessible, and learner-led. As schools nationwide prepare to build stronger, smarter systems for tomorrow, the SORA reading app by OverDrive offers a solution that connects students to books like never before.

SORA is more than an eBook platform. It’s a dynamic reading environment designed with modern learners in mind — intuitive and inspiring. Whether at school or home, they can dive into reading with a single tap. No waiting. No barriers.

Here’s why schools are excited:

Instant access to thousands of eBooks and audiobooks, timeless classics and new releases, to leisure reads and popular favourites.

Curriculum-aligned collections tailored to your grade

Customised filters for age-appropriate reading, ensuring a safe and relevant experience

Built-in reading tools like highlighting, note-taking, and definitions that support comprehension

Progress tracking and usage data to help educators and librarians monitor engagement and adapt recommendations

SORA doesn’t replace your library — it extends its reach.

It empowers librarians and educators with intuitive, easy-to-manage tools that support a school-wide reading culture. From assigning books to tracking engagement, SORA simplifies the process so staff can focus on inspiring readers. At the same time, it helps learners build independence and a lifelong love of reading, key ingredients for future success.

It’s time to build a future where every learner reads more, reads better, and reads wherever they are.

With SORA, that future is already within reach.
