State special collection lists

state lists2

Hometown pride is something we are very familiar with in Cleveland and in Ohio. Some people are religiously dedicated to the Cleveland Browns or The Ohio State University Football team or they will endlessly talk about the great food scene Cleveland has to offer. As a librarian, my local pride lies more with Donald Ray Pollock, Jacqueline Woodson, Sherwood Anderson, Harvey Pekar, Christopher Moore, R. L. Stine and all of the other amazing writers from Ohio.

I'm sure librarians all over the United States feel the same way, so our staff librarians have created a special collection list for each of the 50 states. You can view the individual state lists by following this link: State Lists

Lists include titles by authors born in the state, authors that have lived in the state for a significant portion of their lives, novels set in that state, and some nonfiction titles about the state. These would make great curated collections on your digital library homepage!

If you would like more recommendations, we're always happy to create custom lists. Email us at collectionteam@overdrive.com for more information today!

*Please note that title availability may vary by geographic location and platform.
