"Not Like the Rest of Us: An Anthology of Contemporary Indiana
Writers" features seventy-eight notable Indiana poets, fiction writers
and essayists, including Marianne Boruch, Jared Carter, Mari Evans, Karen Joy
Fowler, Helen Frost, John Green, Philip Gulley, Patricia Henley, Susan Neville,
Scott Russell Sanders and Dan Wakefield. The most experienced writers here are
in their nineties; the youngest in their twenties. Some are best-selling
authors, some widely known in literary circles and some just beginning. Many were
born and raised in Indiana; others found their way here and stayed.
An officially endorsed Indiana Bicentennial Legacy Project, the
book extends the appreciation of Indiana’s rich literary heritage into the 21st century,
celebrating authors who are bringing honor to the Hoosier state in our own
time. Libraries can purchase this new contemporary Indiana collection here.
On Nov. 2, 2016, North Madison County Public Library Director
Jamie Scott and her staff visited the Indiana State Library as part of their
annual staff day. During the visit, Associate Directors Connie Bruder and Wendy
Knapp gave a tour of the building and shared information about the various
services the State Library provides to Indiana libraries and to all
Hoosier residents. "We loved having them visit and we hope more libraries
plan a trip to come see us," Bruder said.
If you are interested in
bringing your staff to visit the Indiana State Library, or you simply want to get
more information about the library, please contact Connie at cbruder@library.in.gov or Wendy at wknapp@library.in.gov.
