 2023
Michigan Notable Books Author Tour
The
2023 Michigan Notable Books Author Tour has wrapped up! Authors from the
2023 Michigan Notable Books list visited 50 locations across the state throughout April, May, and June. Program attendees had the opportunity to gain insight into the creative writing process as well as learn more about
the rich topics covered across the spectrum of MNB titles. The Library of Michigan is thankful to the participating authors, host locations, and all the attendees for helping make a successful author tour. For those who did not have an opportunity to attend,
stay tuned for the upcoming
Author Conversations video series featuring several of the 2023 Michigan Notable Books authors. Additionally, if you took photos during any of the tour programs, please consider emailing them to
Librarian@Michigan.gov or tagging them on social media with the
Library of Michigan's accounts.
Furthermore, the Michigan Notable Books selection committee is starting the process of evaluating titles for the 2024 Michigan Notable
Books list. To find more information about the submission process as well as other content about the Michigan Notable Books program, visit
