AR BookFinder

AR BookFinder is an online tool that will help students find appropriate AR books.  Students can complete an open search of all AR tests available, or they can view lists of books owned by the RJH Media Center under Teacher Lists.  The Book Bag feature can be used to print lists of books chosen.  To view information specific to RJH, students need a keycode,JW729977.
