U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón to Serve Historic Second Term

Apr 24, 2023

Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden has appointed Ada Limón to serve a two-year second term as the nation’s 24th Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry.

The act of Congress establishing the poet laureate position states that the Librarian may appoint a laureate “for one- or two-year terms.” This is the first time a laureate will serve the longer option. Limón’s second term will begin in September 2023 and conclude in April 2025. 

Limón has announced upcoming collaborations with NASA, the National Park Service, and Poetry Society of America.
