Dear Michlib people, This is a brief note of introduction, I am the current president of the *Upper Peninsula Publishers & Authors Association*. This group has been empowering U.P authors to write and promote their work since 1998. We are online at www.UPPAA.org for the main site and membership is open to everyone in the state of Michigan and beyond who has or had a U.P. connection in their lives. Our most exciting new outreach programs are the *UP Notable Books Award *which selects 10 outstanding U.P. books every year and the accompanying *UP Notable Books Club* which celebrates the authors with Zoom chats free to the public. The U.P. Notable Books Club is jointly sponsored by the Crystal Falls District Community Library, Evelyn Gathu , Director. We would encourage you to invite your own patrons to participate in these once-a-month opportunities to meet the authors in person and ask questions. The current schedules for UP Notable Books Club are at * Wave 1: http://www.upnotable.com/book-club/ * Wave 2 (starts 09/2021): http://www.upnotable.com/2021/05/26/u-p-notable-book-club-2nd-wave-authors-e... Personally, I am also the president of Loving Healing Press and its imprint Modern History Press. We are publishers of the /U.P. Reader/ and other award-winning books about Michigan including /Points North/: D/iscover Hidden Campgrounds, Natural Wonders, and Waterways of the Upper Peninsula /by Mikel Classen (winner of the Historical Society of Michigan Award 2020) and the just released /Superior Tapestry: Weaving the Threads of Upper Michigan History/. The outreach for my company includes donating dozens of copies of our publications through the Superiorland Library Co-op. If your library would like a selection of our titles, I'd be happy to donate some for your evaluation at no cost or obligation. -- Regards, Victor R. Volkman, President L H Press Inc. www.LHPress.com
