The library has three series of books on individual states: Celebrate the States, America the Beautiful, and Capstone Press. All give fast facts about the country, history, people, and culture. For your convenience, these books are located at the end of the 900s.

To search for a book on a specific state, use the "Power Search" tab in the catalog and set Type to "Book". Put the state's name in the title line. Choose a book with only the state's name in the title. If your list contains a large number of books, back up and put a series name in the series line. The books for this project will have only the country's name in the title.
