Public schools are paying big money for reading management programs.  A dominant seller is Accelerated Reader.  This is largely a library of tests that students take on the computer after reading a book.  The test library is coupled with a filing system that records test results and accumulates points for books read.  Statistical information is available and can be printed out as hard copy reports.

This project envisions a functional clone for AR, that is a free program that will do as many of the AR functions as are useful.  This involves building a substantial test library (only 321 volumes as of 11/12/05), firming up the file system, and arranging for hard copy printouts.  The filing system is largely in place; the program can actually be used if on-screen reports will do.  The immediate task is to write in the hard-copy routines and build the library.  Low tech and non-tech volunteers could do the test writing very well; I'm afraid I need someone who knows what she's doing on the printing functions.
