CarnaThe Library: books and short reads
Where the reading is, why your homework is not in it, and what the labels on a book mean.
The Library is the reading shelf. Open Library from the menu on the left.
Discover books, short reads and stories chosen for your level.
What is on the shelf #
Everything here comes from your school's library — the reading your school has published for you. A school with a large library has a few hundred titles.
Your homework is not here. Work your teacher assigned you is under Assignment, even when the task is to read something. The Library is for reading you choose yourself.
Reading a book #
Each card shows:
- the CEFR level — A1, A2, B1, B2,
- the title and a summary of what happens,
- tags that come from the book itself — the skill it practises and the type, for example Reading and Long Read.
Click Continue Reading on a card and the reader opens where you stopped. A book you have not opened yet starts at the beginning.
Use Filters at the top to narrow the shelf by level, skill or type instead of scrolling the whole thing.
If a book will not open #
Reload the page once — the reader fetches the text separately, and a slow connection can leave it blank. If it is still blank, tell support which book. Without the title nobody can look at the right thing.
