The Center for the Book's mission includes promoting reading, authors and Michigan's literary heritage. We create and maintain resources such as the Michigan Authors & Illustrators database and the Literary Landmarks. These activities bring the wonder of Michigan's literary world to people at home and in libraries across the state.
This award recognizes an outstanding published body of literary work by an author who is either from Michigan or has substantial ties to Michigan.
Nominate your favorite Michigan author for the 2021 Michigan Author Award. Nominations are accepted from February 2021 through May 31, 2021.
The Center works with local groups and the United for Libraries (Association of Library Trustees, Advocates, Friends and Foundations) Program to fund Literary Landmarks in Michigan. The program encourages the preservation of historic literary sites and Michigan's literary heritage.
The Center collaborates with the Michigan Association of Media in Education on the Michigan Authors & Illustrators database. The database lists authors who live in Michigan, were born in Michigan or works that are set in Michigan. The entries include book lists, awards, biographical information, book covers and availability for programs.
