To see all available materials, sign on to our online ordering system, ROAR. Once logged in, there are many ways you can search:
Keyword – This will search title, description, notes, and resource ID for your term.
Advanced Search – This search option will give you more limited results as you can search for a term in just the title or description and you can limit it by audience, substance, language, media type, publication, or topic.
Quick Search – The quick search lists all of the categories that an item may be put in, such as language, topic, substance, etc. If you want materials on a certain topic, such as “Character education,” click on the topic and all items will be displayed. This is a quick way to find materials on a particular subject.
New Resources – The ten newest resources are listed on the left of the screen. Frequent visits will keep you informed on what is newly available from the clearinghouse. All new materials in a month are also listed in each issue of the NPRC Update.
Recent Searches – Your five most recent searches are also listed on the left.
You can also search the system without logging in by going to the public search at http://roar.nevadaprc.org/public_search. The public search allows you to view available materials and download PDFs, however you must login to order materials.
Of course, if you would like help in determining appropriate materials for your organization or event, you can contact the NPRC staff. We will happily give you advice on appropriate materials for your audience and topic. Bibliographies of available materials can also be created to fit your event. Please contact us for more information.
