- Hold the Applause!: Do Accelerated Reader (TM) and Electronic Bookshelf (TM) Send the Right Message? Carter, Betty Computer Assisted Testing Decision Making Skills Educational Resources Elementary Secondary Education Library Circulation Library Collection Development Library Material Selection Literature Appreciation Reading Programs Reading Tests School Libraries Scores Standardized Tests Student Motivation User Needs (Information) Although the computerized reading management programs, Accelerated Reader and Electronic Bookshelf, increase library circulation and standardized test scores, they have drawbacks. Both programs devalue reading, diminish motivation, limit title choice, restrict materials selection and collection development, discourage independent selection of books, emphasize testing rather than needs, and fail to make the best use of school resources.
