Example library science quiz questions
Which Dewey Decimal class holds literature?The 800s. Literature and rhetoric are grouped there, arranged by language and period.
Which Boolean operator returns only results containing both search terms?AND. It requires both terms, so results are fewer and more specific than with OR.
What do the first three digits of a 13-digit ISBN show?The prefix 978 or 979, which marks it as a Bookland EAN number. They do not identify the publisher.
What does a controlled vocabulary such as Library of Congress Subject Headings do?It standardizes subject terms so books on one topic share the same heading, which makes retrieval consistent.
What is the main purpose of a call number?It gives each item a unique shelf location, so it can be found and returned to the right place.

Built from your material

Upload PDFs, slides, DOCX files, plain notes, or photos of pages. Text recognition reads images, so handwritten or printed pages still become quiz questions.

Three question types

Get multiple-choice, true/false, and short-answer questions. Each one includes an explanation so wrong answers become lessons.

Flashcards and mind maps too

Turn the same material into flashcards with spaced repetition or into a mind map to see how the topics connect.

How it works

Upload your source

Add a PDF, slide deck, document, or notes. No credit card is needed to start.

Choose a format

Pick multiple-choice, true/false, or open questions, then generate your quiz.

Study and review

Take the quiz in your browser, read the explanations, and repeat the questions you missed.

Generating quizzes from your own readings keeps the questions tied to your syllabus, whether you are learning Dewey Decimal classes, database search operators, or cataloging standards. Free accounts can study in the browser, and paid plans add exports for PDF, DOCX, Anki, and CSV, with QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should I make for a library science exam?

Start with one question per key term or concept in each chapter, then add more where you keep missing answers. Short quizzes you repeat over several days usually work better than one long session.

What should I know about Boolean search for a library skills quiz?

AND requires every term to appear, which narrows results, while OR accepts any term and broadens them. NOT excludes a term, and quotation marks search an exact phrase.

Can I export my quiz to QTI or Moodle XML?

Yes, QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are included with the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. PDF, DOCX, Anki, and CSV export are available on the Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month.

Is there a free option to try it first?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, with no credit card needed. Exports require a paid plan.
