Destiny and Sora Access

DESTINY

AOMS uses Destiny to manage your student’s library account. Students and parents can access your account anytime to check what items a student has checked out to them, look for books in our school library, and create reading lists or find the lists created for classes. 

  • Access the AOMS Destiny Page 
  • Sign in using your student's 5-digit Student ID as the username and password. 
  • Go to Back Office and My Info

This is a detailed view of all items checked out, due dates, any fines, and the barcode number on the device. This is helpful to identify which items are issued to which student for families with multiple students.

If you have questions about your student's account, please reach out to Mrs. Otten

SORA

Your student also has access to a wide variety of books through the Sora App. These are eBooks and Audiobooks available through the CUSD libraries, Carlsbad Library, and San Diego Public Library. Use your student email and follow these directions on How to Sign Into Sora to start exploring all of the books available to CUSD students. 

BOOK CLUB

The Big Library Read is a reading programs that connects readers around the world with the same ebook at the same time without any holds or waitlists. The AOM Library participates in this book club every month. Check the monthly newsletter for which dates we meet in the library to discuss the books. You can access the book each month by logging into Sora, click the San Diego Library under Explore and it should be featured. Please see Mrs. Otten in the library if you have any questions or need help.

Donate Gently Used Books

Did you buy a book for your student that they are never going to read again? Have a stack of books at home that you want to send to a good place to be shared with other readers? Just want to share your favorite books with students? 

We are always looking for more copies of popular and unique books for students to read. Books that are not used will be donated to unprivilaged schools in San Diego County to help spread the love of reading and help the enviroment by reusing books. Books may be dropped off at the front office anytime during office hours. 

*Amazon Wishlist and donated used books are eligible for tax donation through the AOMS PTSA. Please contact the librarian for a letter.
