Now that we are a blended learning school and every student has a laptop, I am excited to use our technology to create easier access to books and resources for our entire school community. You may have noticed the MackinVia widget on the right side of the main page. To access our ebooks, just click on that widget and enter the universal username and password for our school (above).

You will see all the ebooks in our collection, each with the option to check out if available or place a hold if not. The first time you click "Check Out" on a book, you will be asked to create a backpack account. This is your own personal username and password for MackinVia books. I suggest using your 6-digit student number as the username and your laptop password as the password. That will be easiest to remember, since you already log into your laptop that way on a regular basis. Some ebooks can be checked out and read by multiple users at a time, but most are only available to one person at a time, just like a regular book. If the one you want is taken, put it on hold. Checkouts are good for two weeks, and you will be notified when your book becomes available.

You can also download the MackinVia app on your phone or other devices. If you are stuck somewhere waiting on your ride, you can pick up right where you left off reading your ebook. The next time you log in to read on any other device, you'll be on the right page! Using the app also allows you to download for offline reading, highlight and bookmark, etc.
