STATE CENTER AFFILIATES

Since 1984, fifty states and the District of Columbia have established (see Guidelines) statewide book centers that are affiliated with the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress. These state centers use themes established by the LC Center and develop activities that promote their own state's book culture and literary heritage, sponsoring projects and hosting events that call attention to the importance of books, reading, literacy and libraries. When its application is approved, a state center is granted affiliate status with the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress for three years. Renewals are for three-year periods.
