Orbit Searching and E-Books
Our school library system has migrated to the new and improved "Oliver" system. One great feature of this new system is that students can use "Orbit" to search, reserve and review library books at school or at home. Another great feature that is available from Orbit is access to borrowing E-Books to read at school or at home! Students just need to log into their student portal and click on the "Oliver Library" icon and they're away!
