Common Questions

Questions from library systems

Patrons sign in with their library card, so using the platform feels like a natural extension of your existing library services, not one more login for patrons to keep track of. If your system prefers, we can also set up email-based sign in instead.

Yes. Many libraries use Literacy Leap inside tutoring programs they already run, with staff or volunteer tutors leading sessions using the same built-in scripts and guidance families use at home. It fits naturally alongside a program you've already built, or makes it easier to start tutoring initiatives for your patrons where they didn't previously exist.

Yes. Literacy Leap is built to align with the Orton-Gillingham method, a structured approach to literacy instruction proven through decades of research to be highly effective for children learning to read.

Very little. Most systems are fully set up within a day or two, when we help you configure access and connect your catalog. Once that's done, families use Literacy Leap independently from home, so there's no ongoing staff time required to run sessions. Your team can check in on usage and progress through the admin portal whenever it's helpful.

Our team analyzes your library's catalog and matches early readers and decodable book bundles to the exact skills in the Literacy Leap sequence. As they make progress, each child’s personalized list of titles from your shelves updates, so they always know what is available that matches their skill level.

Literacy Leap is priced on a seat basis, so you're only paying for the patrons who are actually a good fit to use the platform, not your entire population. This makes it easy to start small and scale as your program grows. Reach out and we can put together a quote for your system.

Yes. We offer the opportunity to start with a short-term pilot before committing to annual licenses, allowing you to gauge patron interest in the platform first.
