Accelerated Reader @ Hallett Library

The JFHML is extremely exited to offer Accelerated Reader (AR) book titles to our elementary and junior high school patrons. As school district #182 uses the AR program to increase individual student’s reading enjoyment and achievement, we are happy to partner in this program.

Our collection contains hundreds of AR titles which can be found by using AR Bookfinder (http://www.arbookfind.com) on any of the Library internet computers. Staff members will be happy to assist our young readers & their parents to successfully reach their reading goals.
