A cooperative effort between Library of Michigan and the presses of University of Michigan, Michigan State University, and Wayne State University has recently launched a unique collection of regional eBooks available to all residents of Michigan. ReadMichigan.org is a statewide eBook collection consisting of eBooks published by local university presses about Michigan and the Great Lakes region.

The homegrown collection includes winners of the prestigious Michigan Notable Books award as well as other important books published by Michigan presses and authors. Residents and visitors to the state of Michigan can access these eBooks (with no wait lists or holds) via geolocation at any time at www.ReadMichigan.org. Michigan Humanities has provided important financial support and is also a founding partner of the project. The complete press release may be found at https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/0,9327,7-381-88857_20585-576165--,00.html.

There are announcement posts about ReadMichigan.org on the Library of Michigan’s social media accounts. We encourage everyone to share these on their own platforms:
