“In Palm Beach County, our MackinVIA Shared Collection supports our Battle of the Books competition by making sure all students have access to at least one copy of the books involved. By strategically promoting both our MackinVIA collection and our Battle of the Books competition, participation in both grew dramatically. Once we tapped into our district promotions for summer reading and winter break reading our usage skyrocketed. Students will engage in eBooks if you give proper attention to training your media specialists and creating reasons for those collections to be used.”

Important News For Chromebook Users
In May 2016, Google announced its intention to bring the Google Play Store to the Chrome OS platform. This means that Chromebooks with recent updates to Chrome OS version 60 and above, as well as all of the newest models of Chromebooks, can now support the installation of Android apps. This development affects the MackinVIA platform in the following ways:
- The MackinVIA Chrome app will remain available for older models of Chromebooks that cannot install Android apps.
- Offline reading will not be available through the MackinVIA Chrome app. A network connection is required to access materials.
- Newer models of Chromebooks should install the MackinVIA Android app from the Google Play Store.
- Offline reading is available through the MackinVIA Android app.

Mackin’s development teams have spent a significant amount of time researching possible solutions and other options to support older versions of Chromebooks. In our research, we have not been able to find a solution for offline reading. The local file system on Chromebooks with older architecture is inaccessible to our application. We apologize for this inconvenience, and we will continue to look for a solution to work around the issues with older Chromebooks.
