Destiny Discover Logo

Students are busy learning how to use Destiny Discover to look for new books. Click on the Destiny Discover icon (1 leaf), log in, click on the big blue box, look for your name, and click “My Stuff”. You can see what books are checked out. Go back home and use the ribbon to search categories and genres or type a title or topic into the search bar to see what books are available. Students are also practicing navigating the ebooks sites such as Sora, Comics Plus and Lightbox books.
