New Educational Metadata

OverDrive API Partners

Did you know you can get "educational metadata" from the responses of our Metadata API? *

As an exmaple, here are the fields returned for one book:

...

   "gradeLevels": [
        {
            "value": "Grade 6"
        },
        {
            "value": "Grade 7"
        },
        {
            "value": "Grade 8"
        }
    ],
    "ATOS": 7.0,
    "interestLevel": "MG",
    "lexileScore": 1030,

...

*Note: Not all books have this metadata available.

For more information on these standards, visit the following wiki pages:

Thanks!
