Scribner and Heart of America Partner for Library Makeover Contest

Scribner, the publisher of Anthony Doerr’s Cloud Cuckoo Land, will work with the Heart of America Foundation on its “Cloud Cuckoo Land Library Makeover Campaign,” a contest that will award a makeover to an under-resourced public or school library within the continental U.S. 

Nominations will be accepted nationwide through a dedicated Heart of America site beginning on May 25 and ending June 10. Heart of America will select up to ten finalist libraries, and the finalists will be posted on the site on July 25 for the public to vote on a winner.

The library with the most votes will be notified this summer and will receive the makeover from Heart of America this fall. The makeover might include new furnishings, equipment, paint, carpet, a mural, and funds to purchase more books, depending on need. Up to five runner-up libraries will each receive a selection of more than one hundred adult and children’s books from Scribner and other Simon & Schuster imprints.
