On the Brink receives
even more notice
|
A
book sponsored by MEC and authored by MEC Policy Consultant
Dave Dempsey has been named a "Michigan Notable
Book" for 2005. The book, On the Brink: The Great
Lakes in the 21st Century, also won a Michigan Historical
Society Award of Merit last fall.
The Library of Michigan annually selects the Michigan
Notable Books, a list featuring 20 books published the
previous calendar year that are about or set in Michigan
or on the Great Lakes or written by a native or resident
of Michigan. The Michigan Notable Books program is designed
to promote reading and raise awareness of Michigan's
literary heritage.
For more information on the program and the other titles,

Arts and Libraries at http://www.michigan.gov/hal/.
