Abstract

This chapter introduces BookReach, a social platform designed to support school librarians in curating and sharing inquiry-based learning materials. The platform addresses the limitations of traditional Online Public Access Catalogues (OPAC) by providing a user-friendly interface for finding and sharing relevant resources. Key features include unit-based book curation, list sharing, discovery, and adaptation, all aimed at transforming individual librarian efforts into a collective knowledge base. The platform's architecture and core functionalities are detailed, highlighting its integration with existing library systems and its potential to foster a community of practice. Initial usage statistics and a usability evaluation with professional librarians and trainees are presented, offering insights into the platform's effectiveness and areas for improvement. The chapter concludes by discussing the importance of content-based filtering and the need for open metadata or automatic classification of book difficulty, pointing to future research directions.
