What is a School Portal?
The School Portal is a web-based program that allows you to connect with other Booksource Classroom users within your school. If your school wishes to create a free School Portal Account, each individual school will have a School Portal Administrator that oversees the school portal account.

How do I set up my teachers to access the Book Room?
On the School Portal Settings Page, select “Manage Classrooms”. (see example below).
To add a Teacher, click on “Add New Classroom” and fill out the form with the teacher information.
After all the teachers have been set up as a classroom, the administrator on the School Portal can decide who has access to the eBooks. Classroom Availability can be set up on the library page by clicking “Classroom Availability”.
The administrator can decide which classroom should have access to an eBook by selecting the “Include In Classroom” box next to each classroom.
By setting up a teacher with as a Classroom, this is creating a Booksource Classroom account for teacher. After sighing into their Booksource Classroom account the teacher will be able to access the Bookroom by selecting the “View Bookroom” button on the “Library” page.

Students will not have access to the book room library. Only the teacher connected to the School Portal account will have access to the library and be able to check out books and or resources from their Booksource Classroom account by clicking on “View Bookroom”.
