Students and staff in Granite School District checked out over 1.8 million items from school libraries in the 2016-2017 school year. We ran detailed reports, crunched the data, and for the first time ever have compiled lists of the most popular book titles for the school year across the entire district.

Elementary Schools

Jr. High Schools

Complete Lists

Looking for more details or more book titles? We have compiled the full title lists into a public workbook which you can view here.

The titles shown in the infographics above by no means comprise the full extent of our school library collections. Even the most popular books on these lists accounted for only a minuscule percentage of the total checkouts, as our students read widely and diversely from thousands of other books held in our collections.

Interested in any of the titles you see on these lists? Wondering about the availability of something you don’t see here? Contact or visit with library staff in your school library, or during the summer use our handy request form to make a purchase suggestion or to seek help in finding a specific resource. You can also contact Josh Whiting in the Educational Technology department with any questions about these reports.
