The Wisconsin Center for the Book celebrates books and the book arts, encourages the joy of reading and writing, and honors Wisconsin’s literary heritage. The Center honors all aspects of the literary world and provides a link between our citizens and writers, illustrators, publishers, librarians, and educators.
