[LM_NET] HIT: Readers Advisory linked to lexile levels

[Carl W Feucht <cwf@MAC.COM>]

Greetings!

I've just begun a new position at a school which purchased the  
Scholastic Reading Inventory [SRI] and Reading Counts! programs  
during the last school year. Up until this past month I was not aware  
of lexile levels at all.

I suddenly find myself being cast in the position of a young adult/ 
juvenile readers advisory service. Each young reader is pleading to  
be guided to a book they'd enjoy linked to their specific lexile  
level. Fair enough...

My question to you is this:
Is anyone putting together lists of popular genres, or authors,  
perhaps series linked to lexiles?
Are there any websites or listerv's doing this?
Any there databases I could subscribe to for the purpose?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Regards,
