eBooks and Audiobooks
Reading is highly valued at OLMC as we wish for all of our students to be lifelong readers and learners. Reading helps students to develop academically by enhancing their reading comprehension and critical thinking skills, but also emotionally by fostering creativity, empathy and a more nuanced understanding of the world.
We have a diverse and interesting collection of print books in our school library collection to meet the interests and reading needs of all students. In addition, we have a collection of eBooks and Audiobooks available through the Wheelers Platform. An app is also available to allow for these resources to be accessed on the go. An even wider collection of online books/audiobooks are available for free from local libraries including the Yarra Plenty, Darebin, and Manningham services.
The Learning Commons staff are always available to assist students with reading recommendations and to set up access to the online collection of resources.
