TAR: reading levels

[Sharon <jellmore@COX.NET>]

I have been following the DRA reading level comments.  I would like to level
my collection, obviously section by section over a prolonged period of time.
It would serve my teachers as well as parents who come in hoping to help
their child in selecting materials.

Does anyone know of an automated process that assigns a reading level to
each item in the collection?  In other words, can I send a disk of my
inventory to someone who will assign a reading level within the record.  I
want to be able to allow patrons to search for particular reading levels.

any help or pointers would be appreciated.
