# How does the Library work in the Lexplore Reading App?

## The library in the Reading app has a different design than the one for teachers in the Lexplore portal. The Reading app library is tailored to motivate students to read.

**When the student logs in to the Lexplore Reading app and go to Library, this is what the see:**

#### Library with different bookshelves in the following order

As an extension of the possibility to set personal preferences, we are happy to introduce an improvement to the library that makes it easier for students to find the perfect book to read. With our new categorization system, navigating and finding inspiration has never been simpler!

**In the Library the student most importantly have these functions:**

- **Newly added books:** The latest updates in the Lexplore library
- **Personal preferences**: Here are the pupils favorite genres, based on the selected preferences, are prominently displayed first, ahead of other categories.

#### **Filter and search**

Besides having the different labeled bookshelves, books can be filtered and search for. When you click on "Filter and Search" in the upper right corner, this selection comes up, enabling you to customize your search even more:

#### **Selecting interests and favorite genres**

When a student logs in to the Lexplore Reading app for the first time, they are asked to choose their interests and favorite genres. This helps personalise the reading experience by sorting the genre shelves in the library based on what they like most.

They can update their selections at any time by clicking the **cogwheel icon** in the top right corner of the app to open the **User profile**.

Under **My interests**, the student can tap on as many genres as they like - such as *Animals & Nature*, *Mystery*, or *Fantasy & Sci-fi*. Their selected interests will appear first in the digital library, making it easier to find books they enjoy.
