NoveList k-8 helps guide younger readers as they search for books they might enjoy.  It also includes other content of interest to fiction readers, such as Author Read-alikes, What We’re Reading, Book Discussion Guides, BookTalks, and Annotated Book Lists. For school media specialists and teachers there are Picture Book Extenders and articles on Teaching with Fiction.

What You Can Do in NoveList
NoveList allows readers to use a favorite author or title to locate other, similar, authors and titles of interest. When you look up a favorite book in NoveList, you have the option of finding similar books in one of two ways:

1. You can click on subject headings from your favorite book and search the database for more titles using the subject headings you have selected, or
2. You can click the “Find Similar Books” button (at the top of the title record) and search for more titles like the one you enjoyed.

Author Read-alikes articles (at the For Readers tab) can also help you find authors whose books are similar to the novels your favorite author writes. In addition to finding similar books to your favorites, NoveList allows you to:

* Look up and view series information (in series order),
* Search for books by entering your own descriptive terms in Describe a Plot,
* Use the Boolean Search function to search specific parts of the title record, such as reviews,
* Browse book lists by category, genre, or theme at every reading level through Explore Fiction, and look for award-winning titles in Best Fiction,
* Link directly from many title records to web sites with information about the author.
