<\/a>“This is at once a celebration of the literary riches and resources of Iowa City and a spur to action. We look forward to working with our new partners in the Creative Cities network — to forging dynamic relationships with writers, artists and others committed to the life of discovery. This is a great day for Iowa City.”
\n–University of Iowa International Writing Program Director Christopher Merrill<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In celebration of Iowa City’s designation as UNESCO’s third City of Literature<\/a>, we’re featuring three of the Iowa Digital Library’s literary collections. As the University’s writing programs and communities continue to grow in prominence, DLS is committed to providing stewardship to their output — collecting, preserving and transmitting digitized texts, readings and other media,\u00a0with a goal of\u00a0securing long-term access to Iowa City’s cultural heritage.<\/p>\n
