PUSD Students: You can check out library books in Sora!
There’s a new way for PUSD students to get access to free eBooks and audiobooks in the library’s collection, and it doesn’t even require a Pasadena Public Library card! Through a partnership between Overdrive and Sora, and Pasadena Public Library and PUSD, students can now check out books from the library’s Overdrive collection using the Sora app on their PUSD Chromebooks.
There are a few steps to set up your Chromebook to access Pasadena Public Library books, so we created a helpful YouTube video to show you how. After you complete setup, you will never have to do those steps again. You’ll just enjoy quick and easy access to the great books in our collection!

Hi AnneMarie,
Thanks for your article on Sora. Can students at a private school in Pasadena use the Sora app with the public library’s collection access? Is it just for PUSD students?
Thanks,

Hi Carolyn! Yes currently this access is only for PUSD schools and is provided through an agreement between PPL and PUSD. I’ve emailed you though to follow up in case you and your principal would like to get this access for Walden School!
Thanks for your comment!
