ResourceMate Adds Lexile Measures

ResourceMate has added a reading program service designed to provide instant access to Lexile measures and Accelerated Reader data.

"With this service schools and public libraries can obtain the information without the need to export their data to have it processed," said Brian Watson, president of Jaywil Software, in a news release. "When items are added scores are automatically retrieved and all existing items can also be processed in a real time batch process. The ISBN retrieval feature has an extended feature that will search Lexile and Accelerated Reader databases for those ISBN's (including Scholastic) not found on LoC (Library of Congress) and other chosen sources."

The Windows-based ResourceMate is a library automation tool designed to help with cataloging, circulation, reporting and searching collections.
