Bookshelf FAQs
Q: Can my child read books on Biblionasium?
A: We do not have books on the website for kids to read. On Biblionasium, children can rate, review, and recommend books to their community. They can also log their reading and read against challenges. However, they need to get the books from their school and classroom library.
Q: What’s the difference between the classroom bookshelf and the kids bookshelf?
A: “My Books” displays your child’s personal bookshelf: books they have marked as favorite, want to read and so on. The group bookshelf is managed by your child’s teacher and also includes recommendations from their classmates.
