Good morning, Field codes are a useful tool to use when searching many of the MeL databases for specific information. Lexile® levels are great to use for identifying the reading level of a book, especially for younger people. The field code for Lexile® in the EBSCO products from MeL is LX. We’ve created a handy, very general, interactive guide that you can use to help elementary-age students make selections for books that are in their range. Additionally, we’ve included some sample searches to get you started. https://docs.google.com/document/d/18Se6MarW9iNmKq_-2SHRmkiA-PVPKlO3133k1acs... If you have questions about searching by Lexile® or the eResources in MeL, please contact us at melerhelp@mcls.org<mailto:melerhelp@mcls.org>. If you would like to schedule a training with your school or library, please contact us at mcls.org/melrequest<https://www.mcls.org/mel/mel-databases/mel-engagementtraining-request/>. Have a great day! Ann Ann Kaskinen MeL Engagement Specialist K12 Midwest Collaborative for Library Services (MCLS) (800) 530-9019 ext 150
