I always get excited when I discover that one of my books has been added to the collection of yet another prestigious university library. Today I found out that my second book, Chalkboard Heroes (2015), has been added to the libraries of two more universities.
The book is now part of the Lilly Library of Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana. The volume has also been added to the Elihu Burritt Library located at Central Connecticut State University in New Britain, Connecticut. In addition to these new libraries, the book has also been added to the collections of the Autry Museum of the American West in Los Angeles, California; Chadron State University in Chadron, Nebraska; the University of Sourthern Mississippi in Hattiesburg, Mississippi; and the University of Chicago Library in Chicago, Illinois.
My first book, Chalkboard Champions (2012), has been added to the collections of the University of Arizona, Tucson, and Berea College in Berea, Kentucky; Winona State University in Winona, Minnesota; the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg, Mississippi; the State University of New York in Oswego, New York; Hunter College in New York, New York; Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey; Salem State University in Salem, Massachusetts; and the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California. It is also part of the collection of the Library of Congress.
Much appreciation to these universities for recognizing the value of my work!
