APS improves efficiency in tracking number, value of textbooks

Recently, APS started using new software to keep track of textbook inventory in schools. This new software, Destiny Textbook Manager, is a product of Follet Software Company. This new system of taking inventory of textbooks — textbook automation — will provide the district a process to easily distribute and collect textbooks, reallocate surpluses in textbooks, and account for any stolen, lost or damaged texts. In addition, Destiny will directly benefit schools by having less of an impact on instructional time, making resources available during instruction, and reducing textbook costs.
