LIBRARY STAFF: Follett Destiny Suite

Adding Accelerated Reader Information to MARC Records

There are several ways on integrating reading program information into Destiny Library Manager:

  • Subscribing to the relevant Reading Program Service from Follett.  Services are available for Lexile, Reading Counts and Accelerated Reader. This involves an annual fee and some technical configuration but provides quiz information and automated updates to a specific collection.
  • Manually uploading the data provided by the Reading Program supplier. This data is usually provided free but does require staff time to upload and this process may need to be done at regular intervals.
  • Manually entering the information into a catalog record at the time a title is accessioned. This requires access to the AR Bookfinder site.
