Barrington 220 Adds Epic School Plus to Our Lineup

Recently, elementary students and teachers may have noticed a change in the number of books students can access in the digital reading app Epic. This change is the result of a restructuring of access made by the company behind the popular digital reading platform.

We are happy to announce that Barrington 220 has added Epic School Plus as our newest digital reading subscription. With this new subscription, elementary students gain access to all 40,000 Epic titles. In addition, this access is no longer restricted to during-school hours. Students can now access their school-managed Epic account on nights and weekends. Students can also download books from Epic to read when they are offline. 

There are many books from Epic that are part of our elementary social studies curriculum, and access to these resources should be restored shortly. We anticipate that Epic School Plus will be in place early in the week of December 11, 2023. Look for an email with instructions for upgrading your access.
