The BCA library is pleased to continue to offer the web-based library catalog called

                                                Destiny Quest

 

Advantages of this new system include:

  • Library catalog can be accessed anytime, anywhere you have internet access.
  • Students (and their parents!) can log in at any time and check their account and fine status, place books on hold, make a list of books they're interested in, or build a bibliography.
  • When searching for a book, student can type in a subject, AR level range and point range to find a book quickly and easily.
  • Book covers appear on screen, and holding the mouse over a book instantly gives the student the book title and author, a short summary, AR level, and number of copies available in the library.
  • Students can post comments on books they've read and write recommendations for other students (pending library staff approval).
  • Students can virtually browse our shelves.
  • Even the youngest students can use the catalog with a visual search, clicking on pictures instead of typing in words for their search.
  • WebPath Express is a controlled, curriculum-driven web search on the Destiny website that students can use for additional research.  Students are taken to websites that have been examined for content and age appropriateness.
