The Alaska Center for the Book, an affiliate of the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress, is a nonprofit, all-volunteer organization celebrating the richness and diversity of language. We were founded in 1991 to stimulate public interest in literacy throughout Alaska through the spoken and written word.
Alaska Center for the Book partners with literary, educational, arts and humanities organizations, as well as the Library of Congress, to host and sponsor many literary events throughout the state.
We welcome all who are interested in furthering the cause of literacy and language in Alaska. If you are interested in supporting our events and projects by becoming a member, please click the "How to Join" link above for more information.
