Re: [LM_NET] converting Lexile to AR level

[Donna Guild <donnaguild@CHARTER.NET>]

Hi All,

Is anyone aware of a simple and accurate way to convert Lexile levels
to AR levels? We have worked hard over the last two years to get AR
levels into our MARC records, and labels into the books. Now there is a
conversation starting at the district level about students knowing
their Lexile reading levels, and being able to find books in the
library at that level. I'm wondering if there is a way to avoid having
to enter all of the Lexile levels into the MARC records, and just
having the students convert that Lexile information to AR.

Thanks for any information you can provide.
